here's a basic recipe:

There's a whole wide latitude, but the basics can't be denied. You
can forget the buttermilk and salt and ppr, maybe even hold it to one
sour ingredient, lemon or vinegar. Mayo, sugar, milk, sour juice is
all you need. Also, don't make it too thin. The recipe says 2 hrs.
Overnight will make a thicker dressing thin enough to put into a spray
bottle. Jes make yer cabbage cut fine. Really fine. Let sit
overnight and send KFC a letter to **** off.

Bob, I have made this recipe a bazillion times and it has always been well
received, but I do tweak the recipe sometimes.
First of all when using a whole cabbage, do not include the core of the head
of cabbage; as that is where the heat is.
For the three of us here at the place I call home, I use a standard size (1
lb.?) bag of slaw mix found, near the other bagged salads,
in your local grocer's produce section. This contains the carrot and red
cabbage for some color and saves time having to deal with each.
For the buttermilk I also use a heaping tablespoon of Saco brand Buttermilk
powder and a 1/4 cup of water, which I consider more convenient.
I also like to add about a half of a teaspoon of celery seed. Being a
diabetic usually use Splenda in place of the sugar and no one notices. I
think
letting this set and marinade for a few hours is what makes this taste so
good.
