Step 1: Prep the Veggies
If you’re not using a pre-packaged mix, shred your cabbage very thinly. In a large bowl, toss together the cabbage, carrots, and minced onion.
Step 2: Whisk the Dressing
In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, milk, sugar, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth and silky, with the sugar completely dissolved.
Step 3: Combine and Chill
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and fold gently to coat all the vegetables. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours—overnight is ideal for the best flavor and texture.
Step 4: Stir and Serve
Give the slaw a good stir before serving to redistribute the creamy dressing that has settled at the bottom. Serve chilled.
