Instructions
In a large bowl, add chopped cabbage, parsley, green onion tops, and salt. Stir to make the cabbage mix uniform.
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, buttermilk, sour cream, brown mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, sugar, horseradish, and dill pickle relish. Stir until well blended.
Drizzle the coleslaw dressing over the cabbage. Stir to coat the cabbage well.
This may be served immediately, but tastes better when served the second day.
Recipe Tips
Salt the cabbage - before making the slaw, the salt will pull out the excess moisture and keep your coleslaw super crisp.
Adjust seasonings as coleslaw sits - the flavor will change as the flavors mingle together.
Don't just serve it as a side! - Coleslaw is great on a burger, or even a hotdog!
