Coleslaw enjoys a nearly 250-year-old history in the United States.

TheDutch term for the dishwas “koosla,” which translates to “cabbage salad.”

It’s a side all too often left there on the plate after that main dish has been devoured.

The others are crinkle-cut fries, Texas toast, and coleslaw.

And this is a slaw you’ll definitely not be leaving on the plate.
