Ingredients

2 to 2 1/2 pounds cabbage, trimmed of outer leaves
1 large bunch watercress, carefully washed and stemmed
1 large yellow onion
5 red radishes, thinly sliced
1/2 cup white-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 cup mayonnaise
3/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon horseradish (drained well)


Directions

Cut cabbage into thin wedges and remove the core. Chop it in food processor along with watercress and onion. Transfer to mixing bowl. Add radishes, vinegar, sugar and salt and pepper. Mix well. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, heavy cream and horseradish. Gradually stir dressing into vegetables, stopping when you think slaw is moist enough. Chill at least 1 hour. Serves 8.
