I have several - this one is a really old one - does this sound familiar?

2 teaspoons butter
2 eggs
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper ( hah - I love it so I add more)
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 cup vinegar
1/4 to 1/2 cup milk
1 diced green pepper

Beat eggs lightly with sugar. Add mustard, salt and pepper. Mix
lightly. Add vinegar and butter. Cook in a small saucepan over low
heat stirring constantly. When it becomes a soft custard, remove from
heat. Cool.

Add milk and chopped green pepper. Chill until ready to use. Thinly
slice green cabbage. Pour dressing over and chill until ready to
serve.

here's another:

1 large head cabbage (about 3 pounds) -- cored
1 pound pared and shredded carrots
1 chopped green bell pepper
1 chopped sweet onion
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 cup sugar

Shred cabbage into a large bowl; toss with shredded carrots, green bell pepper and sweet onion.

In saucepan bring to boil vegetable oil, cider vinegar, celery seed, salt, dry mustard, and sugar; stir to dissolve sugar. Let cool slightly and then pour over cabbage mixture while still warm. Stir thoroughly, cover and refrigerate overnight.
