Essie Rose's Slaw

From the kitchen of Essie Rose (via a newspaper food column)

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup vinegar
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups mayonnaise
  • Grated cabbage

Instructions

  1. Boil the vinegar with the sugar; let cool and mix with the mayonnaise (per the column, "don't use salad dressing").
  2. Mix the dressing with the grated cabbage only - no carrots or green peppers.
From a newspaper clipping about a reader ("Estep") tracking down this slaw recipe in Essie Rose's own handwriting - the clipping is cut off before the very end.
