For years I have cheated when making my coleslaw, originally it was out of ignorance and possibly some convenience but it just feels wrong now and I am here to come clean and look for alternatives and forgiveness.
When I first started cooking I was focused on the meat and everything else was an afterthought. That is why I got into the habit of buying bagged grocery store slaw "starter kits" along with the McCormick $0.99 spice packs. Sure I jazzed up the dressing by adding a little spicy brown mustard instead of 100% mayo as the packet calls for. I even went so far as to chop up a few canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce and pawned it off as my "secret" recipe.
I am here to make amends for past mistakes, ask for forgiveness and solicit options for a better slaw recipe prospectively. My only requirement is that I do prefer a somewhat creamy slaw so some amount of mayo is going to be required. Point me to the light.
Whew I feel better now.
