6 c. cabbage, finely sliced
1 c. carrots, finely chopped
1/4 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 c. green pepper, chopped
1/2 tsp. celery seed
2-3 drops hot pepper sauce (optional)
3 tbsp. dry onion, minced (optional)
1/2 c. milk
1 c. mayonnaise
1/2 c. buttermilk

Toss together the cabbage, carrots, sugar, salt and pepper; drench with milk. Cover and refrigerate 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients. Mix with cabbage mixture. Refrigerate 1 hour. If too moist, drain off some of the dressing. Keeps only 24 hours. (Similar to that served in popular chain fried food restaurants.)
