Horseradish 101

Horseradish is a gnarly brown root vegetable in the mustard family that includes wasabi, broccoli, cabbage, and radish. It comes from Eastern Europe, and contains volatile oils that make it taste quite hot (think wasabi.)
You will sometimes find the whole roots on sale in grocery stores during the holiday season. Grab one if you do!
Most of the time you’ll find it in jars either as prepared horseradish, or creamy horseradish sauce.
Prepared horseradish is the grated root mixed with vinegar to stabilize its heat.
Cream style horseradish sauce is prepared horseradish blended with sour cream or heavy cream.
You can buy both styles in the supermarket, but you can also make them at home.

To make prepared horseradish

For each cup of peeled and grated horseradish add a tablespoon of vinegar, a tablespoon of water, and a pinch of salt.
Keep sealed in the refrigerator for up to a month.
Keep in mind that horseradish loses its potency over time, so plan to use is sooner than later once grated.

How to preserve horseradish

Canning is not an option because the heat destroys the pungency of the root.
But you can freeze your grated horseradish to preserve it for future use. I like to freeze it in small batches in zip lock freezer bags ~ label them, it will last up to 6 months.
