More Information
Creamy horseradish sauce pairs perfectly with prime rib. The sharp, spicy flavor of horseradish and tangy Dijon mustard cuts through the richness of the beef, creating a delicious contrast that enhances the overall flavor of the meat.
While raw horseradish can be sharp and overwhelming, adding mayonnaise or sour cream creates a creamy texture and tones down the spiciness. The sauce will cling nicely to bites of meat.
Refrigerate
Refrigeration is key, allowing the flavors of the sauce to meld, and the consistency of the sauce to thicken. After refrigerating for at least an. hour, serve it individually in ramekins for dipping, or drizzled on roast beef.
Not just for beef
It’s good anywhere you want a taste of spicy, pungent flavor. Try it with chargrilled ribeye steak, with seafood like smoked salmon, on burgers, or with grilled meats like chicken or pork chops. Try it for dipping chips, or French fries. Delicious!
Keeping
While the sauce will keep covered in the refrigerator for up to a month, or in the freezer for several months. It’s best to use it within the first couple of weeks of making it. Store it in an airtight container, such as a clean jar with a tight fitting lid.
