Creamy Horseradish Mustard Sauce

Author: Flavelo
Sauces and Gravies Recipes
A meeting of two pungently strong ingredients in a silky cream bath. The essential oils of horseradish and the strength of mustard are tamed by heat, turning into a pleasantly spicy, warming sauce. Traditionally an indispensable companion to boiled beef (Tafelspitz) or smoked meats.

⚠️ Milk

Instructions

1 ✓

If using fresh horseradish, peel and grate finely.

Tip: Fresh horseradish aroma is unbeatable but volatile. Use immediately after grating.
2 ✓

Pour cream into the saucepan and warm over medium heat until just simmering.

Tip: Do not boil rapidly, or the cream might scorch or separate.
3 ✓

Reduce heat to low. Whisk in the mustard and let it dissolve in the warm cream.

Tip: The mustard will also help thicken the sauce slightly.
4 ✓

Add the grated horseradish. Simmer on very low heat for 3-4 minutes.

Tip: The longer you cook it, the milder the horseradish becomes. If you like it very spicy, add it only at the very end.
5 ✓

Season with lemon juice, salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar.

Tip: Sugar and lemon juice balance the horseradish bitterness and highlight the heat.
6 ✓

Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes before serving. It will thicken as it cools.

Tip: Excellent served warm or room temperature.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use jarred horseradish?
Yes, but use less lemon juice as jarred horseradish usually contains vinegar. Squeeze out excess liquid first.
How do I grate horseradish without crying?
Grate by an open window or use a food processor. It's stronger than onions!
