Coleslaw Dressing Recipe
Creamy, tangy, and oh-so-easy: this Coleslaw Dressing Recipe transforms a simple salad into a crowd-pleasing side dish.
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise Hellmann's or Duke's recommended
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt full-fat for extra creaminess; swap sour cream if you like
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar unfiltered for bold flavor
- 1 1/2 tablespoons honey or raw sugar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard adds depth; spicy brown works too
- 1/2 teaspoon celery seed optional, but it boosts that classic slaw vibe
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Whisk until smooth—this makes it ultra-creamy from the start.
- Whisk steadily; watch the dressing lighten in color and take on a zingy aroma.
- Stir gently until honey dissolves and the mustard swirls evenly.
- Whisk and taste for seasoning and adjust if needed.
- Cover and chill for at least 15 minutes to meld flavors and thicken.
- Taste for balance and adjust if necessary.
Notes
Chilling is key—don’t skip the 15-minute rest for full flavor. Adjust sweetness or tanginess to personal preference. Use a whisk or handheld frother for lump-free dressing.
