  1. Beth REVIEW:

    You can't go wrong with a recipe from Julia Child! The coleslaw was perfect (not that I expected it to be anything but wonderful!)

  2. Guest Foodie

    Superb. Delicate. Nuanced. I never imagined cole slaw could offer sublimity. Follow this recipe slavishly. It is perfect.

  3. monicavl REVIEW:

    Very good. I made enough for 12 for thanksgiving and it was terrific. I didn't have a big enough bowl to mix the ingredients when they're dry and bulky, so i used a two gallon zip lock bag. Made it overnight and just added creamy ingredients before dinner.
