Combine mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, celery seed. Whisk or shake in a jar. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding salt and pepper to taste, or more mayonnaise and a bit more vinegar if too sweet for your taste.

Add dressing to the shredded cabbage mixture, tossing as you add, until the cabbage is well moistened.
