Lemon Poppy Seed Coleslaw Food

OLD FASHIONED POPPY SEED OR COLESLAW DRESSING

Steps:

• Place the first five ingredients in a blender in the order listed. Pulse and blend until smooth. (May need to stop and stir up from bottom.)
• Slowly, through the top of the blender, with the blender running, drizzle in the oil and blend until emulsified.
• Stir seeds in by hand. Refrigerate. The mixture will become slightly thicker when chilled. Makes about a cup.
• Note: if bottled lemon is used, check to see if it needs to be mixed with water to mimic the strength of an actual lemon; it may be concentrated.

POPPY SEED COLESLAW

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk the vinegar, sugar, mayonnaise, mustard and poppy seeds. While whisking, add the olive oil in a steady stream to form an emulsion. Season with salt and pepper.
• Fold in the green and red cabbage, red onion and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 day.

• In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, vinegar, mayonnaise, mustard and poppy seeds and whisk together until fully combined. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking vigorously so the mixture doesn't separate.
• Add the dressing to the cabbage mixture until your coleslaw is dressed to your liking. Season with salt to taste. Refrigerate any extra dressing for up to five days.

MAGIC SLAW (PINEAPPLY AND POPPY SEED COLESLAW)

Steps:

• Chop cabbage: I cut my half head in half again. And then I cut each quarter into 1-inch strips. These are what I shred by cutting in 1/8 inch slices with a big knife. Makes for easy eating. Place in a large mixing bowl and break up any big pieces with your hands.
• Cut up pineapple: I do something similar with the pineapple. What you are looking for are 1/2 inch slivers a bit bigger around than matchsticks. Add into the bowl with the cabbage and give it mix again. I use my hands (which are sterile) to let the flavors begin to blend right away.
• Chop onion into small thin slivers (no longer than 1/2 inch) and mix in with the cabbage and pineapple. Put a lid on this and put aside.
• Note: Make sure your coconut oil is in liquid form. If it is firm, heat slightly.
• Make dressing: Squeeze lemon juice into medium bowl. Whisk together with all remaining ingredients except mayonnaise and lemon basil.
• Taste for a nice sweet & sour balance. Add more vinegar or agave as needed to get a good blend and balance.
• Now whisk in your mayonnaise. Make sure you get it smooth.
• Pour the dressing over the cabbage, pineapple, and onions. Mix thoroughly.
• Taste.
• At this point I always add a bit more mayonnaise and blend it inches I don't know why. I just love mayonnaise. :).
• If you like basil, here is where you add it. The lemon basil makes such a nice addition but is not necessary to the outcome really. I do NOT chop with a knife. I tear the basil into small bits and gently blend into the slaw.
• Now place your slaw (after you test it one more time, ha ha) in a pretty serving bowl, cover and place in the fridge and chill for at least 2 hours.
• Serve to family and friends and enjoy your magic!
