American
Coleslaw
Coleslaw is American home cooking, eaten at lunch and dinner. On the plate it is the condiment. Below is what usually sits beside it, what it does and does not contain, and what else to cook once you have made it.
Ingredients
- 14 oz bagged coleslaw mix
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
How to cook it
- Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl.
- Add the bagged coleslaw mix and toss to coat evenly.
- Chill at least 15 minutes before serving.
Serve it with

What it is eaten with
Safe at your table
Dinejot tracks ten allergens and tags every one of them by hand, so the absences below are as deliberate as the presences. Coleslaw carries eggs. It is free of the remaining 9 allergens on that list.
| Allergen | In this dish | Cook this instead |
|---|---|---|
| Peanuts | No | |
| Tree nuts | No | |
| Dairy | No | |
| Gluten | No | |
| Shellfish | No | |
| Eggs | Yes | Applesauce |
| Soy | No | |
| Fish | No | |
| Sesame | No | |
| Coconut | No |
These tags are set by a person rather than inferred from an ingredient list, and they describe the recipe as written here. Read the labels on whatever you actually buy.
What it brings to the plate
Bands, not numbers. Dinejot does not weigh anybody's food, so it says light, moderate or hearty and stops there. This dish was read and set by hand.

When to cook it
Coleslaw takes about 10 minutes from a cold stove to the table, and the cooking itself is easy going. It is eaten at lunch and dinner. Nothing in the calendar rules it out, so it is a year round dish.
