What is the Difference Between Coleslaw and Slaw?

Coleslaw recipes are typically seen with cabbage that has been sliced very thinly. The term slaw can refer to other vegetables that are used to make this type of shredded salad.

What is in Apple Cranberry Coleslaw?

This sweet and tangy salad has a great combination of flavors. It makes a perfect side dish for summer or at any time of the year. It is easy to make and requires hardly any time to put together. Make it ahead and have it ready to bring to any function also. It is nice because it is just one bowl and so easily portable.

How do you make Coleslaw that Doesn’t get Watery?

The key here is the salt. Adding salt will make the vegetables lose their liquid. You can toss the salt in a colander with the cabbage and let it sit for a bit to get some of the moisture out. Dry it and continue on. Also, don’t make your coleslaw too far in advance of serving.
