I have an abundance of horseradish roots or 'thongs' ready to use. Some stored in sand, some frozen. I am seeking recipe ideas for how to use it up. I have in the past been put off by horseradish products in the shops that are mostly sugar and not particularly tasty. I love the strong taste and I am sure there must be some zany ways to attack it!!

Adding a small amount to mashed potatoes is nice.

I will try that thankyou...

That's a handy website, thankyou Chantal!

I think it's one of Alan's little pearls that I'd saved

With Beetroot.
I have a copy of "Seasonal Salads" written by the founders of Liverpool Everyman Bistro (Paddy Byrne and Dave Scott) and they use horseraddish on a variety of salads.

Hi Serf
I have checked on the book mentioned and there are receipes for a salad of beetroot and potato with horseradish and one for baby turnips with horseradish.
I ought to have remembered the latter as I tried it and liked it.

Stephen, How is the book saying to use it pls?
Grate it over? Make a relish/sauce? Other?
I am starting with the raw product.
Thanks
