Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon, divided
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
- 1/2 head green cabbage, core removed and finely shredded
- 1 medium carrot, peeled and grated

Directions
Whisk together mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon sugar, vinegar, mustard, and black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
Place cabbage and carrot in a large bowl, sprinkle with remaining 1/3 cup sugar and salt; toss to combine.
