Cabbage and Apple Slaw

Ingredients:

1 head of green cabbage
2 medium tart apples
1 teaspoon salt

Dressing:
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 small can (1/2 cup) crushed pineapple in juice *

optional:
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 teaspoon celery seeds

Directions:
1. I grate a whole head of cabbage. Then I take 2 apples and grate them into the slaw.

2. Sprinkle over the salt and work it into the grated cabbage.

3. In 15 minutes wring out the cabbage with your hands and put it into a colander to finish draining while you prepare the dressing.

4. Meanwhile whisk together the oil, vinegar, sugar and pepper
Many folks like celery seed or in parts of Germany it is popular to use
caraway seed in slaw.

5. Mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise and crushed pineapple.
I use the small can that is packed in juice. You can of course chop or blend chunk pineapple

6. Blend in first the vinegar oil dressing and then add the sour cream and Mayonnaise mixture a little at a time to achieve the desired creaminess. You don't want it too soupy or too much creamy dressing. This will last several days nicely in the fridge. Now is a good time to check the sweet and sour balance. Add a bit more sugar or vinegar if needed, but careful not to over do it.
