    JANE OR BETTYS
    Sweet and Sour Coleslaw

    This is sometimes called Funeral Slaw, as this is a great dish to take to someone that has had a death in the family. It can sit out for hours without worry. It keeps for weeks and weeks, also freezes very well.

    * 1 large cabbage (3 to 4 pounds)
    * 1 medium sweet green pepper, minced, or grated
    * 1 medium onion, peeled, minced, or grated
    * 1 medium carrot, minced or grated ( I sometimes use 3 or 4)
    * 1 cup sugar
    * 1 teaspoon salt
    * 1 teaspoon dry mustard
    * 1 teaspoon celery seeds
    * 1 cup Apple Cider vinegar
    * 2/3 cup vegetable oil

    1. Remove outer leaves of cabbage, quarter, and remove core. Slice very fine, or grate; (I use the Quisenart grater)
    combine with green pepper, onion and carrot.
    2. Mix sugar, mustard and celery seed in a small saucepan. Add vinegar and oil, let come to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves.
    3. Pour over cabbage (while hot) and toss to mix well.
    4. Refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving. Really best if left overnight.
