directions

  • To make the dressing, in a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks until light in color, then add the sugar, mustard and Tabasco and whisk vigorously.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter.
  • Whisk in the flour to form a smooth paste and cook, whisking constantly, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Whisk in the water until smooth.
  • Whisk the egg yolk mixture into the butter-flour mixture, reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring, until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • Add the vinegar and celery seed, bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, 1 minute more.
  • Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • Mix in the sour cream, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cabbage and carrots and toss to mix.
  • Add half of the dressing and toss to coat, adding more dressing as needed.
  • Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for about 1 hour to let the flavors develop.

  1. This is the best coleslaw I've ever made and tasted! I used to think of coleslaw as something that just came on the side with a burger platter - but I never really cared for it until I was introduced to this recipe. It's not just flavoless cabbbage and mayo - this is fantastic!
     
  2. This is the first time I have tried a cooked coleslaw dressing. The flavor was nice but it was a little thick for me. I'm glad I get to try new recipes like this! Thanks Mimi!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Very busy nanny/au pair, working for a very rich and snooty family, in a very large home, in a very snooty village. Just in case my employer comes here, please don't ask where I am from, or I'll be sacked like the last nanny was. ;-) I take care of 4 gorgeous, and darling kids. 3 girls and a boy. The boy is the youngest (and my favorite). They are great children, very, very active. (Hyper) I love to cook. I guess that's a given, why else would I be here. Part of my job is also to prepare meals for the family. The more they like my food, the longer I get to stay. (just a little joke) On my day off, I usually go out to the cinema or some dance clubs with the other au pairs in this town. That's about it I think.
