How to prepare table horseradish at home


Homemade horseradish with brine - recipe with vinegar

Cooking horseradish has several important features that must be taken into account. Otherwise, the process of preparing horseradish will be remembered as a bad dream, and the result, despite the efforts expended, will not live up to expectations.

  • Horseradish roots, dug up in September, are suitable for preparing snacks; their length is 30-50 centimeters, and their diameter is from 3 to 6 centimeters.
  • You shouldn’t prepare a lot of horseradish seasoning for future use: after a month of storage, it becomes noticeably less hot, and lovers of “vigorous” seasonings will no longer like it. The root itself can be stored in a cool and damp place for up to 6 months, so it makes sense to put the roots in the refrigerator and use as needed. However, if you don’t want to bother with preparing the snack every month, you can still prepare it for the winter, since it can be stored in sterilized, hermetically sealed jars for at least 4 months. In addition, some recipes allow you to prepare an appetizer from horseradish that can even be stored in the pantry for a very long time (up to a year).
  • If the horseradish root has waited too long in the wings, it will almost certainly dry out. In this regard, before processing it should be soaked in cool water for several days (from three to seven).
  • To improve the storage of prepared horseradish, it should be placed in sterilized jars and hermetically sealed.
  • The esters released when working with horseradish strongly irritate the mucous membranes and cause lacrimation. Horseradish will be a little less aggressive if you put it in the freezer for a couple of hours before processing. It will be easier to grind it with a meat grinder if you attach a plastic bag to it to collect the finished horseradish mass. It is safer to work with horseradish while wearing gloves.

Even on store shelves you can find horseradish prepared according to different recipes. There are even more recipes for homemade horseradish. It makes sense to prepare horseradish seasoning according to at least two or three popular recipes, especially since they are all different.

Horseradish
is considered one of the best seasonings in world cooking , and only instability in storage prevents it from gaining the status of a fairly common product.

It is interesting that in the old days in Russian cuisine it was used with all cold and boiled types of fish dishes.

They also ate it with fish pies and kulebyaks, but not when they were, as they say, piping hot, but usually the next day, when they were already cold. Horseradish served with cold meat dishes (most often pork).

In classical Russian cuisine table horseradish was always made without vinegar, since they were sure that it “kills” the peculiar delicate, soft, piquant taste of horseradish, imparting its acetic-sour pungency and a different taste.

In addition, this seasoning was made, so to speak, directly to the table. They tried not to leave her for more than one or two days. This version of table horseradish is given the name “Russian table horseradish”.

There was even a certain ritual for its use. Table horseradish was taken into the mouth only after biting off and lightly chewing a piece of meat or fish. Foreigners, as a rule, were not familiar with this secret. Therefore, in this way it was easy to recognize a non-Russian person.

It turns out that in ancient times in Rus' there was also a custom associated with the “skill” of eating horseradish. It was used to check the bride and groom. The dominance of horseradish seasoning in Russian cuisine remained almost until the beginning of the twentieth century.

Its use had not only nutritional, but also preventive value, because the Russian version of table horseradish made it possible to preserve all the bactericidal properties of the base product, that is, horseradish, and was an effective means for preventing scurvy, colds and infectious diseases of the upper respiratory tract, and also contributed to the prevention intestinal disorders.

Table horseradish , which contains vinegar, is called “horseradish in Polish.” This version of the seasoning was popular in Volyn, Belarus and Lithuania.

Horseradish seasoning with vinegar, tinted with beet juice, is also typical for Transcaucasian cuisine. True, a stronger solution is added there, that is, a 1.5% solution of wine vinegar.

Recipe for Russian table horseradish

Grocery list:
