(8,943 posts)84. Fresh horseradish...
Dig the root from your garden, preferably after the first couple of hard freezes to enhance heat.
Peel roots like you would a carrot. Cut into 1/2 inches pieces.
Place two cups peeled & cut up root in food processor with 1/3 c. H2O. Horseradish is hydrophobic and water activates it.
Blend to desired consistency, adding a little water if necessary.
Let sit for 3-5 minutes, then add a tablespoon or two of white vinegar to truncate the reaction, and blend to final consistency.
Place in a jar in the fridge and eat-at-will.
That is all.
If you like it a little sweeter, add a teaspoon of sugar with the water, or anything sweet (even pineapple juice, for example).
You can also add a dash of salt if you need that. I don't.
