Horseradish from one of my group members

[Guest guest]

This is what I do.

You can hand grate the peeled horseradish root or

you can do in the food processor.

Be careful to wear rubber gloves if you grate on the

fine grater and don't breathe in close to the root.

It has fumes and it's hot for your skin.

I use food processor it's faster but don't open top

and breathe in the fumes from there either.

If you grate then you need to mix the vinegar and

ingredients soon or the longer the grated root sits

without the vinegar mixed into it the hotter it seems

to gets.

 

Horseradish From Scratch

 

1/2 cup peeled and diced horseradish root

1/3 cup plus about 1 tablespoon vinegar

1 teaspoon white sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt or pinch of salt

 

Place everything in food processor and process

until done. Store in glass jar in refrigerator.

You can gate root and then mix all together.

Thanks, Donna. Now all I need to do is spot the horseradish in the

greengrocer's, eh? It

was available in the shops near us in Montreal - although it took me a while to

figure out

that raifort meant horseradish LOL Somehow I didn't recognize the root. I buy

mine in jars,

because I don't use much. Will this keep a long time in the fridge? Maybe I

should use

more of it!

 

The first time as an adult I remember tasting freshly homemade horseradish was

in

Sweden, but I think I recall some dairy in that too? Maybe I'm mixing it up with

somewhere

else.

 

Shall try this when I get the chance ;-)

 

Best love, Pat
