Notes

Here are a few tips to make sure your Bojangles coleslaw turns out just right:
 
  • Shred the Cabbage Finely: To get that perfect crunch, it’s important to shred the cabbage as finely as possible. You can use a food processor or a knife, but make sure the pieces are small and even.
  • Let It Sit in the Fridge: Coleslaw always tastes better after it has had some time to sit in the fridge. Letting it chill for at least an hour helps the flavors blend together.
  • Adjust Sweetness and Tang to Your Liking: Everyone has different preferences when it comes to coleslaw. If you prefer it a little sweeter, add more sugar. If you like it tangier, add more vinegar.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh cabbage and carrots make a big difference in the final taste and texture of the coleslaw. Avoid pre-packaged slaw mixes if possible.
  • Make It Ahead: Coleslaw can be made a day in advance, which makes it perfect for meal prep or if you’re planning a big gathering. The flavors will develop even more after sitting overnight.
