For a tangier dressing, increase the amount of apple cider vinegar by a tablespoon. If you prefer a sweeter coleslaw, add a bit more sugar, tasting as you go. The Creole seasoning adds a slight kick. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount or omit it altogether. This dressing can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For best results, toss the dressing with your shredded cabbage (approximately 6-8 cups) about 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld, but not so far in advance that the slaw becomes soggy.
