Steps:
- Place cherry tomatoes into a bowl and season with black pepper, salt, and sugar. Stir in rice wine vinegar. Let stand about 15 minutes to let flavors blend.
- Stir 2 tablespoons horseradish into creme fraiche in a small bowl; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Refrigerate until needed.
- Cut steaks in half across the grain and pound each piece to about 3/8 inch thick. Season each side generously with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Lay steaks onto a work surface and sprinkle each piece lightly with flour. Pat the flour into the meat. Repeat on other side. Let meat rest for 10 minutes to let flour adhere.
- Place a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, pour in vegetable oil, and heat until small wisps of smoke are visible rising off the oil. Lay steaks into the hot oil (meat should sizzle) and sear until browned, about 2 minutes per side. When you see beef juices accumulate on the surface of the meat, flip and brown the other side, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and let rest for about 2 minutes.
- Pour excess oil from the skillet and pour water into the skillet. Scrape up and dissolve any browned meat juices from the bottom of the skillet; continue to cook until slightly thickened, about 30 seconds. Pour pan juices over tomatoes and stir to combine.
- Divide about half the tomato mixture with juice per serving into the bottom of 2 large soup plates. Top each with 2 beef medallions and a spoonful of horseradish cream. Grate about 1/2 teaspoon horseradish over each serving and top with about 1 teaspoon of chives.

FRESH HORSERADISH HOT STUFF
The root contains highly volatile oils which are released by enzyme activity when the root cells are crushed. The whiter the root, the fresher it is. Keep the root chilled to preserve the heat. Vinegar stops the enzymatic action of the processed root and stabilizes the degree of hotness. Keep the horseradish chilled after making and seal as soon as using. Add at the end of cooking to keep as much heat for the dish.

HOW TO MAKE FRESH HORSERADISH
I learned to make this from an Amish friend who used to sell it at the local Farmer's Market.

Steps:
- 1. Purchase horseradish. OR If you have access to a garden horseradish plant, use a sturdy shovel to dig up an 8-10-inch long tuber of horseradish. (You can't pull it up.) (Don't plant it unless you want to keep it forever.) The plant itself, once established, propagates with tubers, and is very hardy. Wear gloves when hndling horseradish. Remove the leaves from the root and rinse the dirt off of the root.
- 2. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the surface skin off of the tuber. Chop into pieces. Put into a food processor. Add a couple tablespoons of water. Process until well ground. At this point be careful. A ground up fresh horseradish is many times as potent as freshly chopped onions and can really hurt your eyes if you get too close. Keep at arms length away, and work in a well ventilated room. Strain out some of the water if the mixture is too liquidy. Add a tablespoon of white vinegar and a pinch of salt to the mixture. Pulse to combine. Note that the vinegar will stabilize the level of hotness of the ground horseradish, so do not wait too long to add it to the mixture.
- 3. Using a rubber spatula, carefully transfer the grated horseradish to a jar. It will keep for 3 to 4 weeks in the refrigerator.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES WITH FRESH HORSERADISH
Steps:
- Bake Potatoes at 400 for 50-60 minutes While potatoes are still hot, hold each one with a clean dishtowel and cut off about one-quarter lengthwise. With a spoon, scoop out the potatoe flesh. Add 4 T. of the butter to the potatoe flesh and mash. Stir in 1/2 c. of the Pecorino, the sour cream, half-and half, 2 T. of the horseradish, the chives, 1 t. salt and a few grinds of pepper and mix until combined. Fill skins. Cut the remaining 1 T. butter into 4 pieces and top each potato with a pat of butter. Transfer to rimmed baking sheet or dish. In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the remaining 2 T. pecorino and 2 T. horseradish with fingers. Sprinkle over the potatoes. Bake until potatoes are heate through and the tops are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Spinkle with chives.
Tips:
- Choose the right horseradish root: Look for roots that are firm and free of blemishes. Avoid any roots that are soft or spongy.
- Peel the horseradish root carefully: Horseradish root has a strong flavor, so it's important to peel it carefully to avoid getting any of the flavor on your skin. Use a sharp knife to peel the root, and be sure to wear gloves.
- Grate the horseradish root finely: The finer you grate the horseradish root, the stronger the flavor will be. Use a food processor or a fine grater to grate the root.
- Add vinegar or lemon juice to taste: Vinegar or lemon juice will help to mellow the strong flavor of horseradish. Add it to taste, until you reach the desired flavor.
- Use fresh horseradish root as soon as possible: Fresh horseradish root will lose its flavor over time. If you can't use it right away, store it in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Conclusion:
Horseradish is a versatile condiment that can be used to add a spicy kick to a variety of dishes. It's perfect for adding flavor to sandwiches, salads, and roasted meats. It can also be used to make a variety of sauces, including cocktail sauce and tartar sauce. If you're looking for a way to add some heat to your next dish, reach for fresh horseradish root. You won't be disappointed.
