How do you eat your horseradish
How do you usually consume your horseradish, or what do you eat it with?
I know some people can go as far as eating it with dark-chocolate.

I like it with most meats up to and including hot dogs, shrimp cocktail sauce, bacon and horseradish in sour cream as a chip dip.... bloody marys although truth be told I could do with more horseradish and less hot sauce.

There are usually three way I eat horseradish:
-in a cocktail sauce with shrimp or lump crab meat;
-with gefilte fish;
-in a creamy horseradish sauce I make for a brisket or another roast
There's also a horseradish-y product that I love on its own with all kinds of things and also add often to mayo-based salad dressings (say, for shrimp or chicken salad) - creamy horseradish sauce. So far, I've seen 3 varieties: "original", with lemon, and with dill. The one with dill is by far my favourite, but I like the other ones, too.

My ultimate comfort food- crispy french fries with gravy and horseradish. Always in my bloody caesar.

Cocktail sauce is my usual horseradish thing. This Thanksgiving I made a cranberry horseradish relish. It was terrific. Here's the link:

@dearrie, what do you like to dunk in your dip?
dhorst at 5:31PM on 11/30/08
@dhorst ~ Uh, that is a bit personal don't you think? ;-)

Too much food porn has skewed my view of reality.

Mix with sour cream. Place smoked trout on cocktail pumpernickel, top with horseradish sour cream and garnish with a spring of dill. Alternatively, place sliced rare tendeloin on a slice of skinny sourdough, top with horseradish sour cream, and garnish with caramelized onion.
Red horseradish is what belongs on gefilte fish. Clearly.
Cream-style horseradish goes in bloody marys, along with celery salt, tabasco, and a bit of A-1 (plus a spicy green bean)!

never cream style in a bloody and 3 green olives, more if no one is looking.

mixed with mayo or creme fraiche on roast beast sandwich...or in cocktail sauce with shrimp.
I also like dipping fried mushrooms in it.

Mmmmm - on raw oysters and in bloody marys. Also, mixed with creme fraiche and dolloped on steak. Alas, since I'm pregnant I don't indulge in the oysters very often and in the bloody marys even less (a sip or two from the hubby's).
One cool trick I learned in culinary school is that if you're making bread and you add too much salt to the dough (in my case, I used too many olives), add a few spoonfuls of horseradish to the dough. It kills the overly-salty taste, and the horseradish flavor barely comes through at all.

Mmmm, horseradish-Love that stuff.
I eat it on hot or cold Roast Beef Sandwiches-like it on Pastrami sandwiches too.

On Oysters
@iz: you crack me up!
Butrflygirly at 10:49AM on 12/01/08
On cold kielbasa.

Of course I eat it with roast beef, but I also mix it into mashed potatoes.
blush at 3:35PM on 12/01/08
@Blush: Ohhh...Good idea. I never thought of mixing it into mashed potatoes. Mmmmm, now that sounds good. Going to have to try that! Thanks. :)
Butrflygirly at 3:44PM on 12/01/08
I'm also a potato mixer. And pretty much anything listed here as well...
Once, I made a pot of "I'm really poor so anything left in the freezer is going in the pot" soup. It was *terrible*, but it became tolerable when heaped with a pile of horseradish.

I've once tried it with Asian Chicken Rice, it was pretty good. :)

For all you horseradish fans, a brand called Woeber's Horseradish sauce is very tasty on a roast beef sandwich. Keeps in the fridge forever, so it's always there when you want it.
