INSTRUCTIONS
From Down to Earth by Georgeanne Brennan (Chronicle Books). A spoonful of
sauce alongside juicy prime rib or corned beef heightens the flavor.
Brennan recommends making the sauce just before using, as horseradish loses
its potency once it's grated.
Using a paring knife, peel the tough outer skin off the root, protecting
your hands with rubber gloves, if necessary, and being careful not to rub
your eyes. Grate the root on a hand-held grater into a bowl. The fine holes
of the grater produce a fine, fluffy texture; the larger holes create a
coarse, shredded result. Stir in cream, mayonnaise and mustard. Put in a
glass jar with a tight-fitting lid and store in refrigerator. Will keep for
up to a week.
Makes 2 cups.
