Horseradish.
Besides an addition to cocktail sauce and perhaps on roast beef, what's it good for?
I love horseradish cheddar cheese and would love to incorporate it in other meals, if
I can get away with it.

2. I agree -Salad Dressing
Edited on Wed Mar-29-06 11:24 AM by The empressof all
A bit of horseradish in coleslaw is amazing. I sometimes mix it with the mayo for potato salad but remember a little goes a long way.

It's also good mixed with mayo just on sandwiches. Try with roast beef or ham and cheese, or even with just a sliced tomato.

3. With Kielbasa
I especially like it with fresh kielbasa but it tastes great with the smoked kind, too.

4. Smashed spuds, too .......
Just add some to yer mashed 'taters. Even instant ones benefit from a touch or three.

6. And not just smashed ones....
If you have fresh horseradish root, grate a little into grated potatoes for homemade hashbrowns. Gives 'em a nice zing.

Also a necessary component of homemade cocktail/seafood sauce.

9. Anybody shred the fresh stuff to make their own?
I saw it in the store and wondered if grating it would disolve my eyeballs.

10. Mix a little with whipped cream or sour cream
It's great as a garnish for soups especially cheddar cheese or potato; or for that matter, potato cheese.

12. with poached salmon
a little horseradish in mayo for a zingy topping. If there happens to be any leftover salmon, fork it all together with the mayo and horseradish for a lovely sandwich spread. mmmmmm

13. Yes, definitely on salmon-;o)
When it's like a silver(coho), pink, or white king salmon, horseradish works great. The flesh on these are mild. And horseradish is good on whitefish like halibut, cod, snapper.

I didn't like using horseradish it to sockeye or red king salmon. I want that fishy oily flavor to come through, instead use something a little lighter like fresh squeezed citrus juice (either lemon, lime, orange, or grapefruit)
