Looking for a good recipe for a vinegar based slaw dressing, don't want any with mayo lately (also have a friend that won't eat mayo).

Thanks,

    you can thin down sour cream with white vinegar, then just add a little salt, a little sugar, a fair amt of white pepper. some shredded carrots and both regular and purple cabbage. it stays crispier if you dont add the salt til you serve it, but i like it a day later when the purple in the cabbage is running rampant in the slaw just as well.

    Here is one.

    Slaw, Coleslaw, Sweet & Sour


    INGREDIENTS:
    3/4 cup vinegar
    6 Tbs water
    3/4 cup sugar
    6 Tbs oil
    1 lb shredded cabbage
    or packaged coleslaw mix
    pepper
    2 1/2 tsp celery seed
    1/4 cup minced onion
    diced pimento or sweet red bell pepper, optional
    1 Tbs salt




    Procedure:
    1 Combine dry ingredients, except the cabbage, then mix in the water, followed by the vinegar, and finally the oil. Place in a sealed container and refrigerate overnight. A few hours before serving, pour dressing over the cabbage, mix well, and refrigerate until serving.
    Notes:
    1 This coleslaw, even more than most, will cause a pronounced love/hate reaction. For that reason, I usually prepare just a single batch because, although I love it, I can only eat so much. I would rather run out, than have to bring some home. Also, I'm serious about the "covered container". Even if you REALLY love this slaw, when you refrigerate it uncovered, things like cheese & hard-boiled eggs will start to taste very funky the next day!

    here's a simple one my mother always made.

    Equal parts vinegar, sugar, and oil, blended well. I use Splenda, instead of sugar, and it comes out great. Sometimes I'll use different flavors of vinegar. She would also chop up a handful of fresh parsley to mix with the cabbage, along with shredded carrots.

    Somehow Richard I knew you;d have this..

    Yes I did and it was the most disgusting thing I ever put in my mouth..
  • You know, I have some cow feet in the freezer. Just didn't know what to do with them.....til now
  • I know Whole Foods / Harry's here in Atlanta has a bulk salad bar that has an Asian Cole Slaw that is to die for!

    I wish I could find THAT recipe... I know it had rice vinegar, some toasted sesame seed oil, some toasted sesame seeds, and some hot pepper flakes and some shredded red bell pepper (not sure if it was Chinese cabbage or regular)... IT WAS SOOO GOOD!

    If anyone has that or a similar recipe... PLEASE POST IN RECIPES SECION!

    Thanks Wayne, The Asian Cole Slaw sounds great. Which Whole Foods do you go to?

    Could you look at my post in Forum Feedback and see what I am doing incorrectly.

    Thanks,

    Thanks CW, for letting me in on the joke. I thought my thread had been hijacked for some immoral purpose, to put cow feet in shoes. It is pretty funny with everyone else chiming in.

    I also want to thank Richard FL for the recipe, because he truly gave me his effort for a good recipe. That was what I had asked for.

    Thanks again everyone,

    Or you could just toss them into the pot with the roast.

    Roast, Beaver or Raccoon Roast, W/ BBQ Sauce


    INGREDIENTS:
    1 Small-Medium Beaver or raccoon
    cut into serving size pieces
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 tsp instant minced onion
    3 Tbs brown sugar
    1/2 cup chili sauce
    1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
    1 7 Ozs Bottlr Beer or pickle juice




    Procedure:
    1 Place pieces of beaver or raccoon in a foil-lined roasting pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and roast, covered for a half hour. Meanwhile, mix other ingredients in a small bowl for barbecue sauce. After meat has roasted a half hour, uncover and pour barbecue sauce over the pieces. Then roast, uncovered, for another half hour to an hour--until tender. Baste several times during cooking, using your barbecue sauce.

  • We use sugar or agave syrup, rice vinegar (it's milder) and a touch of oil, like sesame oil. Lots of scallions. Very simple.
