Slaw 

-1 "hard" cabbage head, cut in 
 quarters & grated either on a hand 
 grater or in a food chopper. 
- 1 med. carrot - grated or chopped 
        (I prefer grated) 
- 1 med. onion (optional to taste) 
- 1 tbsp. sweet pickle relish 
- 1 flat tsp. sugar [level tsp] 
- Salt to taste 
- 1 med. tomato - chopped in 
  1 in pieces (Peel tomato) 

Add tomato after placing in a 
lg. bowl.  Add mayonnaise 
approximately 1/2 cup - more or less to 
desired consistancy. 

I also add a dash or two of celery seed 
or [celery] salt or fresh celery, 
1 stalk.  Fresh makes it better. Cut fine. 
                          Good luck

NOTE: Gana helped me make this in her 
kitchen one day.  It may be the same day 
she helped me make her roast beef.  She 
said the tomato must be ripe but very firm 
and chilled (near frozen)before you peel 
and dice it or it will turn to mush!  

She diced it in very tiny cubes a little 
less than a 1/2 inch.  She sprinkled the 
sugar like you would sprinkle salt no more 
than a level tsp. full, maybe less. 

She used a hand grater, the type that has 
several sides.  Holes in the grater are 
about 1/4 in. in diameter (the largest). 

She grated the cabbage, the onion and carrots 
on this side -- not too fine and not too coarse. 

No one else I know adds fresh tomato in 
cole slaw.  Hers was so sweet because of 
the tomato, the sweet relish, and the 
added sugar. ~ Ron.V ~
