A plant such as horseradish is distributed almost throughout the globe and is widely used in cooking. Horseradish leaves have long been used in the process of pickling, pickling, making kvass and vodka-based tincture - horseradish. Today, horseradish leaves are also used in preservation. Horseradish root is used mainly for making hot sauces and seasonings. Hot and fiery sauces help increase appetite, improve immunity and improve metabolic processes.
Today you will learn how to cook. The recipe for making it is very simple. You can prepare such a spicy sauce, which is perfect for baked potatoes, meat, fish, simply based on horseradish, or with the addition of beets. The beets will give the sauce a beautiful pink color and make it even more attractive and appetizing. Recipes for table horseradish include the use of both raw and boiled beets. In Rus', horseradish has long been prepared and, interestingly, without the use of vinegar.
Many people will immediately think that there was no vinegar in those days, but this is not so. The peasants of that time produced their own apple and grape vinegar. It was simply believed that vinegar “kills” the specific smell of horseradish and weakens its strength and vigor. In Poland and western Ukraine at that time, vinegar was always added to horseradish and it was called horseradish in Polish. Recipe for homemade horseradish with beets
and vinegar we will now look at.
Ingredients:
- Horseradish roots – 200 gr.,
- Beetroot – 1 pc.,
- Salt - half a teaspoon,

Horseradish with beets - recipe
First of all, boil the beets until half cooked. Wash the horseradish roots. Cut off the tails and roots. Clean them. Cut lengthwise into small pieces for easy grinding. If you have a food processor or blender with a bowl, use it to chop the horseradish. If not, then an ordinary meat grinder will come to your aid. While grinding horseradish, whether you like it or not, you will cry.
To avoid this as much as possible, place a bag over the neck of the meat grinder and tie it with thread. Thus, ground horseradish will evaporate less volatile substances into the air. Peel the boiled beets and grate them on the finest grater. Place the grated horseradish in a deep bowl. Add vinegar, sugar, salt and beets to it. The amount of salt, sugar and vinegar can be adjusted at your discretion, because everyone has different tastes; some people like a sweeter, saltier or sour seasoning. Mix the mixture.

The spicy flavor additive has become quite firmly entrenched in Slavic cuisine. Without it, preparations for the winter are unthinkable. Housewives select the best recipes for horseradish and beets to diversify the autumn-winter menu, to add a special taste to jellied meats, boiled or fried meat products, ham and many other dishes.
Decoration for any table
Dumplings, sausages, fish - this is not an exhaustive list of products with which it is recommended to combine this spicy additive. Of course, children are unlikely to appreciate the taste of horseradish, but adults will definitely include it in their daily diet. The main thing is to find your unique recipe.
Rules for choosing a finished product
Only external indicators will help you choose a spicy snack in the store:
- the bright unnatural color of the contents may indicate the presence of dyes in the composition;
- a pale pink color may indicate long-term preservation of the product - it could have lost its taste;
- it is better to choose that jar of horseradish with beets, which is similar in color to borscht - a dark, rich, red dressing;
- the container must be intact and without damage;
- look at the expiration date - after 4 months there is no point in eating such a snack, it will lose its pungency and beneficial properties.
Did you know? Horseradish is able to fight tooth decay. Therefore, Japanese scientists are working on creating a paste that will contain the hot root. However, it has not yet been possible to remove the characteristic odor of the seasoning from such a paste.
Everyday Snacks and Supplements
How to prepare horseradish with beets in order to preserve the valuable substances of both ingredients as much as possible? Choose recipes that do not involve heat treatment of products. The snacks, sauces, and additives presented in this section contain exclusively fresh vegetables, which means they do not lose a single drop of their beneficial properties. But there is one drawback - the short shelf life in the refrigerator. You have to choose the lesser of two evils!
Beetroot with horseradish in vegetable oil
- 250 g chopped root
- 800 g raw or cooked beets
- 2 tbsp. l. vinegar (6%)
- 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
- teaspoon salt
- teaspoon granulated sugar
- a glass of boiled water.
The composition indicates the amount of processed horseradish. Chopping it in a blender is ideal. If this is not possible, you can use a meat grinder.
Cleaning a fresh root is not difficult. The process takes no more time than peeling carrots. However, “lying” horseradish will definitely cause trouble. Before removing the peel, it is best to soak it in cold water for a couple of hours.
To reduce exposure to caustic volatile substances on the eyes and nose, housewives recommend cooling the root in the freezer. Next, the beets are ground to a pulp using any convenient method: grater, food processor, meat grinder. Mix the ingredients together: horseradish shavings, beets, salt, vegetable oil, vinegar, sugar and water. Everything is carefully kneaded to a homogeneous consistency.
Put the spicy additive in the cold for 12-24 hours so that the products exchange flavor notes and aromas. Ready. It's time to set the table.
On a note! To prevent tears while grinding the root in a meat grinder, you can take a plastic bag, place a bowl in it, and tie the edges of the bag around the metal neck of the meat grinder. The pungent aroma will not escape beyond the cellophane. The horseradish processing process will be painless!
Beetroot-horseradish marinade sauce
- 2-3 small horseradish roots
- 2-3 beets
- 200 ml water
- teaspoon salt
- tablespoon granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp. vinegar (9%).
To prepare the marinade, dissolve salt, sugar, and vinegar in 200 ml of boiled hot water.
Horseradish is ground in a blender, then beets, which are immediately poured into the marinade. Stir the sauce until smooth, cover tightly with a lid, and put it in the refrigerator for 6-12 hours. After the specified time has passed, the sample can be taken.
Delicate tomato-beet rooter
To avoid getting tired of the classic combination of tomatoes and horseradish, you can diversify your favorite recipe with beetroot shavings. The result is a completely new spicy additive, both in color and flavor.
- 2.5 kg red tomatoes
- ½ kg cooked or raw beets
- 250 g peeled horseradish
- 250 g garlic
- salt to taste
- sugar as desired.
Regarding the last point, it all depends on the sweetness of the main vegetables - tomatoes, beets and personal preferences. You may not need to add sugar. In any case, this moment is determined by the desire of the cook.
So, horseradish with garlic and beets are peeled and twisted in a meat grinder (blender). Next, chop the tomatoes (no need to remove the skin). The ingredients are salted, gently kneaded, placed in containers, and placed in the refrigerator to steep.
On a note! Some chefs suggest replacing salt in the sauce with pickled cucumber. But! That's another story.
Beetroot-apple horseradish
It is noteworthy, but we are still not talking about adjika, but an unusual “gorloder”. If pepper and garlic are designed to double the fiery qualities of the product, then beets, apples and tomatoes, on the contrary, slightly muffle them.
Option No. 1. Components:
- 5 small roots
- 1 kg sweet and sour apples
- 3 heads of garlic
- to taste: granulated sugar, salt, spices
- 1 tsp 70% vinegar
- 1 kg beets.
The roots, beets, and garlic are peeled and put into a meat grinder. Peeled apples are crushed using a fine grater until pureed.
After mixing the vegetables and fruits, season the mixture with pepper (spices), sugar, salt and vinegar. The finished product is placed in a container convenient for use (several jars at a time) and closed tightly. After 6-12 hours of infusion in the refrigerator, serve with main courses for lunch.
Option No. 2. The seasoning does not contain vinegar. The dish is prepared immediately before serving.
Products: equal amount (g) of horseradish, boiled beets and fresh apples.
All components are crushed on a fine grater, mixed, and added. The spicy and aromatic addition to meat is ready.
How to grate the root
The root of this plant, which belongs to the cabbage family, is usually dug up in the garden in early spring and late autumn; it is during this period that it becomes mature and pungent, and at the same time loses its unpleasant bitterness. It is washed in cold water, and if there are slightly wilted roots, they can be immersed in ice water for several hours.
There are several ways to grind horseradish, for example:
- Use a meat grinder - to do this, the roots will need to be cut into small pieces to make them easier to twist;
- Using a regular grater - experienced housewives recommend using the finest grater to get a mush consistency and prepare real horseradish sauce. Here it is also recommended to do this on the balcony or even outside, if conditions permit. Fresh air will disperse the pungent fumes emanating from this crop;
- Using a blender is perhaps the most convenient way, since horseradish can be chopped to any desired state, and the blender bowl closes tightly, which prevents any harsh fumes from entering the air.
It is the release of essential oils during grinding that complicates the process of processing and preparing this crop. The vapors enter the nasal and oral cavities, the eyes, irritate the mucous membranes, which causes unpleasant sensations.
To grind it without tears, the easiest way is to use a blender, as it does its job in a matter of seconds, preventing steam from escaping from the bowl.
If you use a regular meat grinder or grater, then in this case you can use the old and proven method - put a mask on your face that will protect the mucous membranes from irritation. You can use a regular bag and glasses that fit tightly to your face.
But there is another way to avoid tears while processing the root - this is to put it in the freezer for 1 hour.

General Instruction
Horseradish with beets belongs to the category of seasonings (sauces, appetizers), for which there is no universal recipe and categorical proportions. Experiments are welcome. If the base is beets (more of it than horseradish), the dish will turn out less spicy.
Adding sugar is a must for lovers of sweet and sour sauces. Salt is also left to the cook.
You won't be able to follow recipes strictly. In any case, you will have to taste the dish and achieve “your ideal” horseradish with beets.
Is there any harm?
It must be remembered that horseradish is a spice and an addition to a dish. Moreover, you can’t eat much of it because of its pungency. And you shouldn’t try it - you shouldn’t consume more than 2 tablespoons at one meal.
Learn about the benefits and harms of beets for the body, how to prepare beet juice, how to dry and how to freeze.
You should not eat it on an empty stomach - it will increase the secretion of gastric juice, which will digest itself, which can lead to ulcers and gastritis. It is also better for women during menstruation not to get carried away with the product - in large doses it can cause bleeding.
A tablespoon of horseradish with beets is the norm for one-time use with the main meal. Eating snacks for a long time can cause exacerbation of gastrointestinal diseases and inflammation of the mucous membranes of the internal organs of the digestive tract.
A few words about the benefits of the product
It is difficult to overestimate the properties of the root, which has long been used in folk medicine as an antibacterial agent. Essential oils of horseradish can cure a runny nose; the active substances in the juice are effective in treating influenza, sore throat, dysentery and hypertension.
Horseradish increases appetite, improves digestive function, prevents scurvy and relieves swelling.
Beetroot with horseradish is a spicy and easy-to-prepare dish that does not require lengthy sterilization and preparation of vegetables. Just a few ingredients, 20-30 minutes of free time - and you have a fragrant, spicy salad ready. For preparation, it is recommended to use only natural fruit or berry vinegar. It gives the dish the necessary aroma and taste. As a sweetener, you can use not only classic granulated sugar, but also natural honey or refined cane sugar. To make the preparation aromatic and spicy, you need to choose high-quality roots. They should be fresh, dense, without flaws or flaws. In order not to damage the mucous membranes of the eyes, it is recommended to use safety glasses when preparing horseradish dishes, and you should also open a window in the room.

Rinse 1 kg of roots, wipe with a towel so that they dry slightly. Wash 1 kg of beets. There is no need to cut off the tails, otherwise the fruits will lose their juiciness and bright color. Just wash the ponytails thoroughly and leave to dry. Wrap the dried roots in a bag and put them in the freezer for literally a quarter of an hour. Take a three-liter saucepan, pour water into it, and bring to a boil. Throw a pinch of sugar into the bubbling liquid, pour in a small spoon of acetic acid, and carefully lower the beet tubers. Boil them for forty-five minutes, making sure to place the lid on top. Take the roots out of the freezer and twist them in a way you already know. Pour water into a separate pan, boil it, add salt, a little more sugar, chopped roots. Cook the resulting mass for 20 minutes, setting the heat to the lowest setting.

Classic homemade horseradish recipe
- horseradish – 1 kg;
- water – 0.25 l;
- salt – 30 g;
- sugar – 50 g;
- lemon juice – 20 ml.
- Peel the prepared horseradish, chop it by passing it through a meat grinder. Use a nozzle that allows you to get the most fine and delicate consistency, similar to puree. Don't forget to attach a bag to it to at least partially protect your eyes from the pungent odor.
- Mix chopped horseradish root with salt and sugar.
- Boil water and pour boiling water over the horseradish, stir.
- Sterilize very small jars and place the seasoning in them. Pour a little lemon juice into each jar: no more than a teaspoon per 0.2 liter jar, but not less than two milliliters. The juice will act as a preservative and at the same time prevent the horseradish from darkening. However, you don’t need a lot of juice to prevent the seasoning from turning out sour—according to the traditional recipe, it shouldn’t be.
- Close the jars tightly and place in the refrigerator.
Horseradish prepared at home according to the classic recipe can be stored for no more than 4 months, but it is still better not to risk it and eat it a month or two before. If you plan to store the product all winter, it is better to choose a different recipe, with vinegar.
