16 ounces shredded cabbage/carrot blend (classic is green cabbage but you can add some red cabbage for color)
For the Coleslaw Dressing:
1 cup quality mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons yellow mustard
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon celery seeds
1 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Place the shredded cabbage and carrots in a large bowl and sprinkle a teaspoon of salt over them. Toss to combine. Let this sit for at least an hour to draw out excess water. Rinse and thoroughly drain (either use a salad spinner to spin dry it or lay it out on paper towels and blot dry.) Return the cabbage to the bowl.
Combine the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Pour it over the cabbage mixture and stir until combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
