Directions
Easter Horseradish and Beets, This recipe makes about 1 1/2 quarts It should be enough for about 8 people However, if you know that you’ve got company coming that REALLY like this dish you might want to make more The only problems you might have is in the horseradish The heat comes form the oils in the root If it’s been out of the ground too long, it might dry up and lose it’s heat When purchasing the root at a store, we’ll scrape it with a fingernail to see if we can smell it If there’s no smell, there’s no heat In keeping with that line of thought, keep the horseradish and the horseradish and beets covered as long as possible, the longer that the horseradish is exposed to the air, the more heat it’ll lose And finally, if you’ve used fresh horseradish, save the tops, you can quarter them and plant them for next year It takes 2 years to get thick roots, but you can have some fresh as early as the next year after planting For additional pictures, please visit: capnrons com/R_S_Horseradish_and_Beets html?id=RZ, yay! this is AWESOME!!!!!!
