Let’s talk about horseradish!

I absolutely love horseradish and thoroughly enjoy making homemade prepared horseradish from fresh horseradish root. Horseradish root is classified as a root vegetable and is part of the mustard family. Its flavor is sharp and incredibly unique. A good thing to know about horseradish root is that it can be quite strong, so you may want to open a window while grating it!😊If you make your own prepared horseradish from horseradish root, you can easily control the heat level. Once you peel and grate it, you can immediately add some vinegar and salt which results in a milder horseradish. If you wait a few minutes before adding the vinegar and salt, you’ll end up with a hotter sauce. You can absolutely use store bought prepared horseradish for this sauce. You can use regular horseradish or you can use hot horseradish if you’d like a hotter sauce!

What other ingredients go into this keto creamy horseradish sauce?

The creamy base for this sauce is a combination of sour cream and mayonnaise. When buying mayonnaise, you’ll want to check your nutrition labels to ensure there is no added sugar or other ingredients you don’t want. You can also use homemade mayonnaise, which is quick and easy to make, yet incredibly creamy and delicious. I used champagne vinegar for my sauce, but you can use white wine vinegar in its place if you’d like. We then add a little Dijon mustard which helps to give this sauce amazing flavor. I used dried chives to make my sauce. If you’d like to use fresh, you’ll want to use 1 tablespoon of fresh chives in place of the 1 teaspoon of dried. To balance our flavors, we add just a little keto sugar. Then to finish our sauce, we simply add salt and pepper.
