Give the coleslaw the wedge salad treatment

Ever since I read that Ina Garten puts in blue cheese her coleslaw, I’m obsessed with a concept I’ve decided to call a ‘wedge throw’. This is coleslaw made with the usual wedge salad accompaniment. T.Today I finally made it a reality. a little more).

this is AA Newton’s Coleslaw Manifest? A little, yes. Newton isn’t exactly in favor of riffs, but she’s very much in favor of wedges. (She is not angry.)

We found that making a wedge throw was very easy. Newton had already perfected the dressing ratio, so all I had to do was dip it in a little red wine vinegar for apple cider and add a bunch of wedge salad toppings. It was served with chopped grape tomatoes (I like the pulp-to-gel ratio), crispy bacon, thinly sliced ​​red onion, blue cheese, and fresh chives as a garnish. it rules.

It tastes exactly what I thought it would: Like the tougher, slightly bitter leaf-based tansy wedge salad, it will be perfectly at home on a late-season barbecue. use a nice coleslaw) and would be great with a simple grilled steak. Or grilled shrimp. It’s also pretty good straight out of the bowl, with an ice-cold martini to wash it down.

how to makeEdge throw (for 6-8 people)

material:

For dressing:

• ¼ cup mayonnaise
• ¼ cup generous sour cream
• ¼ cup red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon table salt, heaped, more to taste
• 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar, more to taste
• 1 pinch tbsp MSG (optional, but very good)
• freshly ground black pepper (optional)

For salad:

• half head of green cabbage
• half red onion
• 1 cup whole grape tomatoes
• 2/3 cup blue cheese
• 6 slices bacon, crispy fried and crumbled
• chives for garnish

Combine all dressing ingredients in an easy-to-pour container. Taste and add more sugar and salt (or pepper and MSG) if desired. Don’t worry about over seasoning, as the dressing should be just barely nasty on its own.

Make two diagonal cuts in the top of the cabbage head, and then julienne along the cuts with a knife on both sides, alternating sides, until you reach the core. Add cabbage to a large mixing bowl. Cut the onion into thin slices, cut in half and place in the mixing bowl. Cut the tomatoes lengthwise into his quarters, mince each (each quarter into his four pieces), and add to the mixing bowl.

Toss veggies together and drizzle with enough dressing to coat. Add bacon and blue cheese, toss again, garnish with chives, and serve immediately. true in case. tomato and cheese involvement. )
