Let the cole wars begin. A worthy Mudcat battle. 7 generations of Appalachian women can not be wrong. (Talking coleslaw as a side dish as opposed to on a properly dressed hotdog.) Definitely shredded on a box shredder, using the coarse grater side, as shown here. Love my mandolin, but not for coleslaw. Texture is everything. I will probably yield to variations in dressings, but texture? Never! Depending on the size of the cabbage, cut in quarters or 6ths to grate. Pick out the chunks of outer leaves that break off. (Yum, snacking while fixing supper.)
