Step by Step Method
Step 1
In a food processor chop the cabbage into small pieces (should look like about the size of confetti) or shred the cabbage.
Step 2
Transfer to a large bowl.
Step 3
With a fine shredder, shred the peeled carrots, then hand-squeeze to remove as much moisture as possible; add to the bowl.
Step 4
Chop the green onion finely; add to the cabbage/carrot mixture along with the celery seed.
Step 5
Mix the three veggies all together with a wooden spoon.
Step 6
For the dressing; in a bowl whisk together all the dressing ingredients starting with the lower amounts then adding in and adjusting to suit taste but using 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar.
Step 7
Pour over the veggies in the bowl, and mix well to combine.
Step 8
Store covered in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or overnight (overnight is better) to blend flavors.
