Ezell's coleslaw

Mix and let sit overnight in the fridge.

This is as close as I can get to the real deal Ezell's. Ezell's is a nearly 100 year old fish camp in Lavaca, Alabama and is the holy grail of catfish fish camps. Sited in a 150 year old cabin on the bank of the Tombigbee River.

Next up would be cucumber tomato salad, use pickling cakes.

Or

Pear salad. Southern folks get pear salad. Canned pear half on a lettuce leaf with a dollop of mayo, sprinkled with grated cheddar (hoop cheese if you got it) topped with a maraschino cherry (optional).

Bachelor salad -

Get head of lettuce. Hold over sink. Pour salad dressing over head of lettuce. Eat.

No dishes to wash......

Hmm? Sounds good. No vinegar?

I do enjoy the cucumber/red onion in vinegar dressing salemtrapper posted as well, with either white vinegar or apple cider vinegar, depending on my mood.

My favorite summer salad is deep fried franks red hot catfish

That, or a big ole prime ribeye. LOL

No vinegar, this one is creamy and sweet with only the onion to offset the sweet. The onion will come off as to strong and almost bitter when first mixed. It mellows in the fridge.

I’m with you

Romain from our garden, with bib and arugula, all homegrown in the Spring.

I like a nice dandelion salad with french dressing

How I cut the cabbage. Half it and core it. Thin slice as if making kraut. Thinner the better. Turn slices ninety degrees and cut again thin as possible. Tedious as all get out but worth it to get the right texture.

If I didnt have access to some delicious yankee walleye, and I had to eat catfish, Id want to kill the taste with Franks Red Hot sauce too..!

Try using a potato peeler. Fast and works great.

My favorite summer salad is fruit salad.

Ooh, you got me craving some ambrosia.

Chilled Shrimp Salad.
