  1. Growing up in a small town there was a small Cafe that not only made
    great hot dog (frankfurter) roast beef and tenderloin sandwiches but she
    had a cole slaw to kill for

    It was the best anywhere

    It was just grated cabbage w/o any carrots etc

    In addition to tasting good it had a tang to it like horse radish but I
    do not think she added horse radish to it

    I think one of the secrets was to add salt to the grated cabbage and
    place in a dish cloth for a period of time and this pulled water out of
    the grated cabbage

    Then add ingredients of sugar vinegar lemon juice etc and mix in mayo

    Does anyone have a recipe like this

    no recipe just my two cents about cabbage. Whenever I begin to lo carb
    bagged plain cole slaw is my veg of choice. I'll eat a whole bag
    usually divided up between my two or three meals as my vegtable ( carb
    ) those first weeks. I will put either unsweetened soy sauce or hot
    sauce in it with cheese and tuna or chicken breast. It's to die for and
    the soy souce and or hot sauce rings in my mouth for hours to come
    sating my appetite.

  4. I use a simple one. Best Foods Mayo, white vinegar, and SPlenda add vin
    and splenda enough to thin it down and balance the sweet and tangy. Add
    fresh cracked pepper voila!! I julienne the cabbage and add dressing as
    I serve so it doesnt get watery. Stay crunchy that way.

  5. You would like kim chee then! I can hardly wait until I can take home
    canned albacore tuna, lightly shake soy and tabasco on the meat. Then
    place small chunks of seasoned tuna inside pieces of kim chee and eat
    it like sushi YUM!!!!!

    1 cup mayonnaise
    ¾ cup Splenda
    1 ½ tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar
    Whisk it together and toss some with shredded cabbage, or broccoli slaw.
    That should be enough for a whole head of cabbage.

    Now tell me how to do this salt thing. How much salt do you use, how long
    do you leave it wrapped in a towel, and how come it doesn't make it salty?

    People like my coleslaw. Basically it has light mayo, vinegar,
    sweetener, celery seed, paprika, salt, pepper.

    Forget amounts. Everything is to taste. You will find that the more
    vinegar and sweetener you use, the more tang and kick it has. Keep
    adding these two slowly, then stir and taste. When you arrive at what
    tastes good to you, that's the amount you need. Paprika is another item
    that gives kick, but be a little cautious. And don't neglect celery
    seed. This may not seem like much, but it is. If you want to get fancy,
    throw in a little poppy seed and even caraway seed. Just warn your
    guests about the poppy seed because I've heard it triggers positives on
    drug tests.

  8. you add a couple of teaspoon of salt and let it set for at least a day
    and that draws water out of it which seems to help the taste

    then add mayo etc
