Almost Bunyan’s Hot Bun Recipe

2 cups Finely Grated green cabbage
2 Tbsp Finely Grated carrot
1 Tbsp Finely Grated onion
1 Tbsp Finely Grated green pepper
1/4 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Red cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp Salt (non-iodized)
1/4 cup Sugar
1 Tbsp Louisiana hot sauce
2 Tbsp Ketchup
4 Tbsp French’s yellow mustard
1/4 cup White vinegar (add last, stir-in)
1/4 cup Apple cider vinegar (add last, stir-in)

Add cabbage, carrots, onion, and bell pepper to a stainless steel bowl and mix well.

Separately, add paprika, cayenne, salt, and sugar and blend.
Stir in the hot sauce, ketchup, and mustard into the dry ingredients until well blended and paste-like.
Stir in the vinegars a little at a time to avoid clumping.

In a medium-sized sauce pan, heat to just short of boiling, stirring occasionally (3 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool

Pour sauce over the veggies and stir well. It may seem like there’s not enough
sauce for all the veggies, but once stirred well it should cover everything.

Cover and refrigerate a minimum of 24 hours, allowing time for
the flavors to blend, soften and pickle the veggies, and generally thicken up.
