Caraway Coleslaw
"This recipe is a recreation of the coleslaw my Executive Chef made for his pulled pork sandwich we had on the menu way back when. Now I make it for my Recipe #209351. I find the caraway seeds gives it a nice little extra bit of flavor. I often use a mix of vinegars. Cider, white wine, and malt are all good vinegars to use. You can mix them up and play around to find the flavor you like best. I used to add thin sliced red onion to this, but alas, nobody in my house like onion enough to let me put them in the slaw. As far as the cabbage goes, you can shred your own, but I'm a firm believer in the store bought 1 pound bag of already shredded with the carrots added, but no dressing. The main reason is that the pre-processed stuff doesn't sweat out as much juice and turn your slaw into a big bowl of cream o cabbage soup.
Oh, on last thing, when I make the pulled pork and this slaw, I try to make my rolls or buns using Tante B's Recipe #90765 I can't think of a better bread to serve pulled pork and slaw on."

<p>I used to cook professionally, but got out of the business because it is a soul crushing, low paying job. If you want to hate cooking, run a hotel kitchen. Now that I don't have to do it for a paycheck, I cook for my friends and family as much as possible. I enjoy making everything from BBQ to Bur Blanc. I love mixing chocolate with spicy ingredients. I am rather new to baking, (only a few years) but I really love it and try to bake whenever I get a chance. I work offshore in the Gulf and I always sneak down to the galley to make stuff for the guys. I'm a huge fan of Alton Brown. I think the guy is a genius. I have tried so many of his recipes, and they all rock. Since finding this website and having a public place to post my recipes for others to review, I have become more conscientious about writing my kitchen experiments down. I still have yet to get my whole wheat pizza dough to paper, but I promise, it's on it's way. My passion for cooking has increased 10 fold since I left the biz, and I plan to keep putting new recipes here and trying my hand at new stuff. <br /><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" /></p>
