In South Africa we make a coleslaw with shredded cabbage, grated carrot, finely diced onion, diced green apple, and a handful of seedless raisins.Crumbled walnuts are also added by some. Season with salt and ground black pepper, and chopped parsley and chives. To this we add a creamy mayonnaise with an optional dash of balsamic vinegar. The mayonnaise can be slightly diluted with sour cream, but I prefer it creamy 😇 Served straight from the fridge, as one of the salads for a barbecue.

As a Southerner who makes excellent slaw, I can confirm that celery seed is the key ingredient. I also like to put some thinly sliced celery in mine if I have it around. Some people add bell pepper, but I don't care for that. However, a couple of "secret" ingredients that can punch it up is sweet pickle relish (or sweet pickle juice in place of some of the vinegar) and horseradish, about a tablespoon at most. They're just background notes, but they bring a lot of subtle complexity.

She also adds shredded carrots and sometimes some shredded green apple.

For the American version - especially when talking about KFC slaw - you need a little bit of grated onion. Yes, grated. And that's why you only need a 'little bit', I emphasize. Like a tablespoon or two size piece of onion, grated into the slaw. That raw onion zing will just sit as a nice background "what is that" flavor - as long as you don't use too much. That's your second warning about using too much. LOL.

While my gran did teach me many recipes they were not the traditional German ones. (Or maybe they were) I only remember eating them lol. A pork joint (hind leg i think ) that was long roasted with cabbage and onions. It was so fatty and golden. Big potato dumplings? Like big round mashed potatoes with a cube of bread and cheese in the middle and parsley sauce. But one is a cake made with what I call cottage cheese here in the US but not a cheese cake persay it was a buttery moist cake with a cheesy taste and a cinnamon streusle on top. No one has found that recipe or has ever heard of it. I worry that it was of her own creation and now is lost. I do have her recipe books but I do not read German. I do know that there are apps now that will translate the pages so I might have to find all the books from storage.

Cabbage is such an underappreciated food tbh - it's cheap, it has a long shelf life, it's filling, and it's incredibly versatile! It's great raw and crunchy, and can be cooked in all sorts of ways. I use a lot cabbage in my day to day cooking - I'll chop some up and add to stews and stuff to bulk it out. Cabbage and dried legumes are indispensable cheap foods in the student kitchen 👍 Cheese slicers are great for shaving thin strips of cabbage for slaws and salads.

Hello

The Burmese one sounds amazing!

This food from myanmar sounds great! You say, that it is too much overlooked. You have the power to change that! I would love to hear more about myanmarese food! Ich fühlt sich komisch an, mit einem Deutschen Englisch zu "reden"... ;)

FYI, it's Myanmar food, not Myanmarese. And the people are Myanmar too. Same as the country. :-)

Really enjoyed this video. There is a certain wholesome quality that is evident throughout. Informative. Thanks a lot for the new coleslaws to try!

Fantastic video! Thanks!

The cabbage core has been a favorite snack of mine since I was a kid. Crunchy and peppery.

Yes, it's not fibrous, just more firm.

Hey man as a Lebanese i dont actually ever see this recipe but i really liked the research you've done. You have only used ingrediants that are found in abundance here in lebanon and I'm really looking forward to giving ur recipe a try. Plus i really liked the malfoof addition Malfoof literally translates to "rapped" incase you were wondering😂 Non the less really enjoyed ur vid..

Malfoof = wrapped OR cabbage, since Arabic tends to describe some stuff and make the description the official name. as for the salad.... I am from Palestine, our cuisine is not much different, so I suppose you can find this salad at Shwarma restaurants.

@Aya Mazloum hahah yeh or hust with mint and lemon

I loved. loved this video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.❤

Thank you for this video. I love coleslaw. I can’t wait to try the variations you have provided.

I'm German. I didn't know the recipe with bacon till now. I always added a bell paprika very thin sliced. Mixed vinegar, a hint of mustard, a good vegetable oil, salt and fresh coarsed black pepper, caraway seed and paprika powder for the dressing. The step where you crunch the cabbage with the hands is also for the consistency. My mom always skipped this part and we ended up with hard and smooth stripes of cabbage, where the dressing drips off.

Meanwhile in Australia we put beetroot in ours. I've also seen many different dressings used from aoili and thousands island to infused oils and vinegeretes

I had no idea there were so many different ways to make Cole Slaw & I also wouldn't have imagined it could be so much fun to explore. You brought life to everything. Great job ! I'll be sharing this with my friends, thank you.

You're a great teacher and your softness in speech and well researched pieces of information make watching these videos truly educational. Thank you dear one, just subscribed

Hello

There's another variety of Southern American coleslaw that skips the mayo and is more vinegar-forward with a wonderful amount of sugar added as well. Don't have a recipe off the top of my head, but that one's my favorite.

That style is the best style on a pulled pork sandwich.

I've had, at some Cambodian homes, a cabbage salad made in the same style as their "bok lahong," papaya salad. Also had a variant with green mango instead that tasted very similar, too. Being from the Dominican Republic, a typical side salad to eat is a simple cabbage salad flavored with neutral oil, bitter/sour orange juice, and salt. My mother kicks it up a notch and uses a flavorful olive oil, a bit of freshly pasted raw garlic, dried Dominican oregano, a tiny bit of the orange skin shaving (chop after shaving to get it really fine), and optional cracked black pepper. If you can't get sour orange near you, any citrus or citrus combo with decent acidity will do, and dried Mexican oregano is a next best sub for the oregano. This salad goes well with grilled/baked meats and our styles of mixed rice ("locrio" and "moro"). Happy to elaborate further on this, and I love hearing about tweaks and tips that also inspire new foods to emerge from traditional takes.

Love cabbage , great ideas !!! Thank you ...

Will definitely be trying a few of those. Thank you for sharing 👍🇨🇦

The Greek version of coleslaw is amazing also - And i have grown up in Australia with many Lebanese friends - and this is very much how they make Malfouf - it is great on a kebab with toom , charcoal cooked potato , pickled turnip and cucumbers Taboulieh - with a sprinkle of zatar and sumac plus fresh lemon juice - can even add some falafel to the kebab

Love to see the Burmese "salad". Good to see something from my homeland!

Wonderful recipes! Thank you

Hello Veronika

Outstanding production value. Well done.

I grew up in the North East. I never had store bought coleslaw (or potato salad) until I was in college. We only ate out on special occasions, my mother made all of our meals. She cooked as her grandmother from Ireland had taught her. The coleslaw & potato salad I grew up with are very tangy & far different from what is standard fare in America today but I knew nothing else. The dressing for both is the same. Apple Cider vinegar, Mayo, Salt & Pepper... Simple, very tangy & I love it. When I bring it to a potluck there's never leftovers. People think it has sour cream, but it's just copious amounts of Apple Cider Vinegar.

really love to see burmese salad reviewing by a cool youtuber... finally

Ohhh!! I'm going to make all of these recipes!! Looks delicious!!!😍

Another really cool video, thanks

I can't wait to try all of these -- one at a time, though.

I used to hate coleslaw until my family started making an asian inspired one. It had so many bright flavors and umami. But what really convinced me to try it in the first place is when my mom put the fried ramen on top when serving. So damn good. I need to ask her what's in it. Now I'll eat cabbage basically in anyform Great video by the way!

Just discovered this show and thought you did an awesome job, well done!

Thanks for the awesome ideas to spice up my keto game! Great video 👌👍

Good video. Some helpful tips for a true "Southern Coleslaw". Instead of vinegar try pickle juice, either bread & butter, or sweet & spicy pickle juice. Use a "Southern" or sweet mayonnaise like Duke's. It really makes a difference, & because its already sweet, there is no need for sugar. A fun addition is a simple bacon aioli, which pairs well with the sweet mayonnaise, & pickle juice. Another good addition is some quality tangy mustard, which adds a good contrast. Lastly pre-mix all the "sauce" ingredients & let the sit for 20 minutes to 1 hour to let the flavorless meld, before adding the cabbage

I've started experimenting with swapping out just Mayo to equal parts Mayo and Yoghurt (or sour cream). It makes the salad feel much lighter, and also (in my opinion) makes the flavour more complex. It definitely made my last batch of coleslaw taste better than expected.

@jfsfrnd I learnt to do it from someone from Russia, so it might be an east Europe thing.

Such a great channel to discover ... properly interested in food, history and the science behind it. Thank you!

Loved the comparison. Ended up with extra slaw starter and needed some new inspiration. Left a subscriber. Great content and love your attitude.

Balkan version of coleslaw or as we call it ”kupus salata" which literally translates to cabbage salad, it's just cut up cabbage with vinigar and salt and it's perfect

Liked automatically even before watching, cause I know I'll like it LOL

So glad I found this channel, love your videos!

I kinda wanna make a compilation of all Andong's reaction while eating 😂 love it, you clearly enjoy it 100% , as one should!

I was like "wow, for an American he pronounces Krautsalat extremely well" - then I realized this was filmed in Germany and Andong is German (?) :D

That's funny, as an American his accent is very apparent to me, though it's not that strong, maybe from lots of traveling around the world? At 5:55 the second time he says "delicious" is like a perfect West coast American accent.

It's always waaay easier to spot an accent if u hear ur native language - in German I would only need 3-4 words and I could tell where someone is from as well. But listening to this dude speaking my 2nd language/English - it's hard for me to pinpoint that he's German too oO

You're right guys, of course if you listen closely to details you can spot he is not a native speaker. I still think his pronounciation is quite good, it lacks the cliché hard German "z" sound when speaking a "th".

I never knew the colours from red cabbage could leak out imagine having an all red coleslaw

@MrHodoAstartes

3 жыл бұрын

German Rotkohl (or Blaukraut, depending on region and preparation) actually relies on it. Red cabbage when cooked will turn an intense purple (or blue, depending on the preparation's acidity) and color anything you put in there. So when you keep shredded red cabbage in a salad (i.e. exposed to salt) for a while the leaking water will absolutely color your salad. I would not suggest it for a coleslaw, though. The coloration looks much better when cooked as it will be much more even.

Whenever my family has left over slaw made with red cabbage it typically turns pink rather than red.

Carrots and red cabbage are notorious for bleeding out over other foods, but soaking & draining your shredded veggies in cold water before mixing them into your slaw, or almost any other recipe, will help set the color and prevent an elephant pink mess.... and if you're feeling artsy, the water makes really pretty pastel dyed eggs (blue for cabbage, obviously orange for carrots, even red onion peels make some nice sepia tones).

Delicious..I put large shredded carrots pine apple or raisins some cilantro I make a dressing using buttermilk mayo vinegar sugar garlic powder salt pepper sometimes I like to sprinkle sliced almonds on top for a crunch.

I liked your video! My experience with coleslaw has been expanded! Here in Hungary, coleslaw is just cabbage, vinegar and salt. I've made traditional mayo,milk, vinegar sugar, carrot and celery seed slaw for friends here since I'm an American. One of my favorite ways to eat cabbage is with real blue cheese dressing. That's a southern inspired slaw that goes well with BBQ. Another I make frequently is with just red cabbage, brown sugar and raisins as a warm slaw with pork.
