Yield Makes 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 medium beets (about 10 ounces)
1 4-ounce piece fresh horseradish, peeled
1/4 cup white-wine vinegar
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Scrub beets and trim stems to 1/2 inch. Place beets in a medium saucepan and add water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium high and cook at a gentle boil until beets are tender when pierced with a small, sharp knife, about 45 minutes. Remove heat, drain, and set beets aside until cook enough to handle.
  • Meanwhile, grate horseradish on the medium-size holes of a box grater. Place horseradish in a small bowl and stir in vinegar, salt, and sugar.
  • Peel beets and grate on the medium-size holes of the box grater. Add to horseradish mixture, stirring well to combine. Keep covered to preserve flavor and refrigerate until needed.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest beets possible. Fresh beets will have a deep red color and firm texture. Avoid beets that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Roast the beets before using them. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of the beets and makes them more tender. You can roast the beets whole or cut them into chunks.
  • Use a food processor or blender to grate the beets. This will make the beets easier to mix with the other ingredients.
  • Add some vinegar or lemon juice to the horseradish sauce. This will help to balance out the heat of the horseradish.
  • Serve the horseradish sauce immediately. The sauce is best when it is fresh.

Conclusion:

Fresh beet horseradish is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Whether you are looking for a new way to enjoy beets or you are looking for a unique condiment to add to your next meal, fresh beet horseradish is a great option.
