Coleslaw salad
Coleslaw is a popular American salad made from just two ingredients: carrots and cabbage. This is one of those salads where the simplest vegetables taste so good that you'll want to eat them over and over again. What makes this cabbage and carrot salad so delicious is the unique and original dressing. It's quite spicy, but it complements the vegetables perfectly. The base of the dressing is sour cream, which has a neutral taste that pairs wonderfully with spicy additions like mustard, horseradish, and black pepper.

Cooking
1. Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Peel and rinse the carrots. It's best to use young cabbage, but if you can't find it, choose a small head with thin, tender leaves.
2. The vegetables for this salad are very easy to slice with a vegetable peeler (or an economy knife), which has one side for cutting into thin slices and the other side for slicing into strips. Slice the carrots into long julienne strips. You can also use a Korean-style grater.
3. Slice the cabbage thinly using the vegetable peeler or a knife.
4. Prepare the dressing. Mix sour cream, mustard, horseradish grated on a fine grater, black ground pepper, and salt. Stir everything well.
5. Toss the salad with the sour cream dressing and mix.
6. Your Coleslaw salad is ready. It turned out delicious and unique. Be sure to try it!
