Dolly Parton Coleslaw image

My grandma never cooked from recipes or even owned a cookbook. This is the one and only written recipe that anyone ever knew her to use, and it is delicious. Southern ladies know their coleslaw.

Time 15m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium head cabbage, minced
1 medium onion, finely minced
1 carrot, minced (or grated)
1/2 bell pepper, finely minced
1/4 cup sweet pickle juice
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon dill pickles, minced or 1 tablespoon pickle relish
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in large bowl. Chill till ready to serve. Serves 10-12.
  • Note: I slightly change the amounts of ingredients for my personal preference and a tarter flavor. I use ½ medium sweet Vidalia onion instead of 1 medium onion and ¼ cup apple cider vinegar instead of ¼ cup white vinegar. Also, I increase other ingredients as follows: 2 carrots, ½ teaspoon black pepper, ¾ cup sweet pickle juice, 1 ½ cups of full fat mayonnaise. I strongly recommend using only full fat mayonnaise and not light mayonnaise because the acid in the pickle juice and vinegar break down the light mayonnaise into a watery consistency which is not desirable.
