Coleslaw with buttermilk dressing

Now that we make all of our butter, we are often left with buttermilk to spare. Because we culture the butter, the buttermilk has a bit of a tang. Ideal for coleslaw we thought. And we were right.

Ingredients - Dressing

1/2 cup cultured buttermilk

1/2 cup mayonnaise 

1/4 cup pickle juice

1 t hot sauce

2T cider vinegar

2T spicy brown mustard

salt/pepper to taste

Ingredients - Slaw

1 head green cabbage chopped into small pieces.

1/2 medium yellow onion, minced finely

3 large carrots, peeled and grated

Method

Make the dressing by whisking together all the ingredients. Combine the cabbage, carrot and onion, add the dressing and toss.

Refrigerate for a couple of hours to allow the flavors to blend.
