Hi Dave,
RH> As far as sweet cole slaw--my MIL gave me the cole slaw recipe I make
RH> 99% of the time; it has just a sprinkle (maybe a tablespoon, at most,)
RH> of sugar. Otherwise, it's cabbage, shredded carrot, pineapple, little
RH> bits each of s&P, pineapple juice and mayo. I'll usually use crushed
RH> pineapple or cut up rings/tidbits into small pieces. Best cole slaw
RH> I've ever tasted and the one we judge others by.
DD> That doesn't need sugar - the sweet comes from the carrots and fruit.
RH> That's why I add just a bit--to help bring out the sweetness of the
RH> other ingredients.
DD> You're making it. You're the one you have to suit.
And Steve; he grew up with this cole slaw. My mom might occaisionally
mix some cabbage and mayo, then call it cole slaw but it definatly
lacked a lot. This cole slaw is one of a number of recipies from my MIL
that became a fast "regular" for me.
DD> I do like Popeyes (and KFC) coleslaw. With a few grinds of black
DD> pepper.
RH> I like Popeyes slaw better than KFC'c.
DD> I definitely like Popeyes chicken better. I don't find a lot to pick
DD> between their cole slaws (locally).
I like Popeyes chicken better too. Been so long since I've had KFC slaw,
I remember it as one of those fine chopped, oil & vinegar salads.
Popeyes has some body to it, and a mayo based dressing.
