For a creamier coleslaw, use full-fat mayonnaise. If you prefer a tangier flavor, add an extra teaspoon of lemon juice or vinegar. To prevent the coleslaw from becoming too watery, salt the shredded cabbage lightly and let it sit for 15 minutes before adding it to the other ingredients. This will draw out excess moisture. Pat the cabbage dry before mixing. For a flavor variation, try adding a pinch of celery seed or a dash of hot sauce. Coleslaw is best served cold. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
