Pickle Slaw Food

PICKLE COLESLAW

Steps:

• Whisk together the honey, vinegar, mayonnaise and mustard in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking to combine. Season well with salt and pepper. (Alternatively, add the honey, vinegar, mayonnaise and mustard to a mason jar with a lid, cover and shake well. Add the oil and shake well once more.)
• Combine the cabbage, red onion, Chinese celery and pickles to taste in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and mix well. Taste and season with salt and pepper. For an extra kick of flavor, mix in some pickle juice if using to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

PICKLE SLAW

Steps:

• Whisk together the shallots, mayo, sugar, pickle juice, hot sauce, salt and pepper in a bowl. Let it marinate at room temperature for about 15 minutes to help tone down the shallots.
• Add half of the cabbage to a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, about ten times. Transfer to the bowl with the dressing and repeat with the remaining cabbage. Mix in the carrots. Season to taste and let it sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours or up to overnight. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.

PICKLED COLESLAW

Steps:

• Combine vinegar, oil, sugar, mustard, and celery seed for dressing in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, combine cabbage, onion, sugar, and salt for coleslaw in a bowl.
• Pour hot dressing over cabbage mixture and mix until incorporated. Place in the refrigerator until chilled, about 2 hours.

RED CABBAGE & PICKLED CHILLI SLAW

Steps:

• Put the cabbage and onion in a bowl, season with salt and a small pinch of sugar and leave for 30 mins.
• Stir the carrot, jalapeños and their pickling liquid through the cabbage. If making ahead, prep the vegetables but don't season or dress until the last minute.

PICKLE-BRINED FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICHES WITH PICKLE SLAW

Steps:

• Arrange the chicken thighs on a work surface, smooth side up. Using kitchen shears, make a few cuts in the thickest part of the chicken thigh. This will help the chicken cook evenly and will also help the brine absorb. Add the chicken to a large bowl and cover with 2 cups of pickle juice. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in the fridge for 2 hours.
• After 2 hours, remove the chicken from the pickle juice and pat dry. Let the chicken sit at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Fill a large Dutch oven with about 3-inches of vegetable, attach a deep fat fry thermometer and heat to 350 degrees F.
• When the oil is almost heated, make your batter: Add the tempura mix, tapioca flour, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to a medium bowl, pour in the club soda and whisk to combine. It should be slightly thinner than pancake batter.
• Working in batches, dredge the chicken in the batter, allowing the batter to cover the chicken fully. Shake off any excess batter. Transfer the chicken to the hot oil and fry until golden and crisp with an internal temperature is 165 degrees F, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the chicken to a wire rack and sprinkle with salt. Fry the remaining chicken.
• To assemble the sandwiches: open the buns and lay them cut side-up on a clean work surface. Spread the mayonnaise evenly over the top and bottom halves of the buns. Place a piece of chicken on each bottom bun. Top each piece of chicken with a heaping 1/2 cup of slaw. Place the top buns on the sandwiches and serve.
• Add the shredded cabbage to a medium bowl and add the pickle juice, vegetable oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using clean hands, massage the cabbage to help it slightly break down. Add the mustard, pickle, onion and dill. Toss well to combine. Keep the slaw refrigerated until you're ready to assemble the sandwiches. Any leftover slaw can be stored in an airtight container for 3 to 5 days.

QUICK PICKLED ASIAN SLAW

Steps:

• Toss the cabbage, cucumber and carrots together in a heatproof bowl, then set aside.
• Bring the vinegars, sugar and salt to a boil in a small saucepan. Pour the vinegar mixture over the cabbage mixture, tossing to make sure all the veggies are covered. Let sit for 15 minutes. Use the slaw to add flavor to your favorite Asian bowl or sandwich. Vegetables can be kept in their pickling liquid in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

REFRIGERATOR PICKLED SLAW

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients very well.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
• Best if allowed to marinate overnight before serving.

SWEET AND SPICY PICKLE SLAW

Steps:

• Chop pickles; mix with pickle juice and mayo until blended.
• Toss with coleslaw blend in large bowl.
• Refrigerate 1 hour.

CRISP PICKLED COLE SLAW

Steps:

• Finely shred the 2 different color cabbages(I use a mandolin, but a very sharp knife does just fine).
• Slice the peppers thinly and chop into small pieces.
• Cut the onion into 4 pieces.
• Thinly slice the four pieces and separate into slices.
• Finely julienne the 2 carrots(or more if desired) and cut into small pieces or grate them on a grater.
• Place all the chopped and shredded vegetables into a large bowl.
• In a small saucepan combine the sugar, vinegars, salt and celery seed.
• Bring to a boil.
• Boil for 3 minutes.
• Pour the hot vinegar over the shredded and chopped vegetables.
• Combine well.
• Transfer into large jars to store in the refrigerator.
• Cool before serving.
• This keeps for a very, very long time in the frig and actually gets better after "pickling" for several days.
