slaw

Crunchy picnic side

Slaw is a salad made from shredded raw cabbage, typically dressed with mayonnaise or vinegar.

The most familiar version is coleslaw, but slaws can incorporate other vegetables like carrots, broccoli, or kale.

It's a common side dish at barbecues and picnics, often served alongside fried chicken or pulled pork sandwiches.

The fish tacos came topped with a tangy lime slaw.
