Thoughts?
As we head in to 'BBQ season' what are we saying about coleslaw? Yay or nay? |  |

Absolutely. Burger with coleslaw in, sensational. |  |

Home-made a resounding yay.
And it's not like it's hard to do either. |  |

A big yay, but homemade with a light dressing made with light oil, lemon juice dressing and wholegrain mustard dressing. None of the soggy, mayonnaise dressing you get in shop bought ones. It's a totally different thing. It's lush as a side or in wraps/pitas with some houmous. |  |

Again, you are showing yourself as a poster with impeccable taste. If there was a tastiest poster award it'd be yours. Oh hang on, that doesn't sound right. | |

"with some houmous."
People don't always want to hear our crap jokes when they're trying to eat mate. | |

A yay from me. It cheers up a depressing salad, that’s for sure.
You need to buy the expensive stuff. The cheap and the low calorie versions are awful. [Post edited 5 May 2022 15:22]

Houmous or hummus? I'm confused now. it's going to be hummus innit, although I'm sure I've seen houmous too. I suppose it depends how it's being pronounced. | |

A nice one, ideally homemade, is very hard to beat.
Like a lot of things nowadays, most versions have far too much horrible mayonnaise in them. |  | | |

Agreed. Nothing worse than those supermarket ones with sauce that's so white it's almost translucent. My mother makes a ridiculously good coleslaw. | |

Those pretentious ingredients like white cabbage, carrots, red onions...
Hard to source but utterly worth the effort. | |

Innit. Cabbage must be a rarity where edgelords come from.
Not too hard to find compared to the ingredients in a typical, far more expensive, shop bought one either:
INGREDIENTS: Cabbage, Carrot (19%), Rapeseed Oil, Water, British Single Cream (Cows' Milk) (3%), Sugar, Pasteurised Egg Yolk, Lemon Juice, Spirit Vinegar, Onion (1%), Salt, Chive, Potato Starch, Citrus Fibre, Potato Fibre, Dried Egg White, Stabilisers: Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum; Mustard Seed. | |

If I had £1 for every time I've had a homemade coleslaw that's just lacking that pinch of Xanthan Gum | |

I'm just glad I didn't mention the option of adding mooli. | |

I used to buy low calorie coleslaw. It's as rubbish as it sounds. Homemade is best obviously, but if it has to be bought avoid the stuff that is supposed to be good for you! |  |
