Pickled Slaw
- Toss julienned vegetable in a mixing bowl large enough to hold pickling vinegar.
- In a small sauce pot combine vinegar, pickling spice and sugar. Bring to a boil for 3 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Using a mesh strainer pour hot vinegar over vegetable. Discard pickling spice. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and set aside for 7 minutes.
- Strain pickled slaw and discard liquid. Vegetables should still have a nice crunch to them.
Avocado Mayonnaise
