Horseradish sauce

Horseradish sauce is a pungent, creamy condiment made from grated horseradish root mixed with a fat or cream base, vinegar and seasonings; it’s commonly used in European and American cuisine to add sharp heat to roast beef, sandwiches and sauces. It’s relatively energy‑dense at 503kcal per 100g because commercial versions are often made with oils, cream or mayonnaise. While best used sparingly due to its richness and sodium content, horseradish contributes distinctive sulfur‑containing compounds that provide its sharp flavor and some antimicrobial/detoxifying properties.
