Equipment
- 1 food processor or sharp knife
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 Large skillet
- 1 small saucepan
Ingredients
- 1 medium head cabbage green cabbage is preferred
- 1/2 cup carrots shredded
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 4 slices bacon chopped
- 1 medium onion
- 2 green onions optional
Instructions
- Use a food processor or a sharp knife to shred the cabbage and carrots. Set them aside in a large mixing bowl.
- In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until it is crisp. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to let it drain. Set aside.
- In the same skillet with the bacon grease, add the chopped medium onion and cook until softened and slightly translucent over medium heat (about 5 minutes).
- Stir the shredded cabbage and carrots into the skillet with the onions. Cook for about 5 minutes, occasionally stirring to ensure even cooking. Season with salt and black pepper during this step.
- In a small saucepan, combine the apple cider vinegar, sugar and celery seed. Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Slowly whisk in the vegetable oil and yellow mustard into the vinegar mixture. Continue heating the sauce on low until it thickens slightly.
- Once the dressing is heated and thickened, carefully pour it over the cabbage mixture in the skillet. Toss gently to coat the vegetables evenly with the hot dressing.
- Top the hot slaw with the cooked bacon and green onions, if desired. Serve immediately while the slaw is still warm and enjoy your Old Fashioned Hot Slaw!
