The horseradish served in the MDR with the prime rib

[CowPrincess]

Does anyone know the brand? I love that stuff, it is very hot which I really enjoy. I have tried ALL the locally-available horseradish in a jar. None is even close to what HAL serves.

 

So, does anyone know the brand that HAL uses?

 

Thanks in advance.

There is a brand called Atomic Horse Radish. Have you tried it? You could also make it yourself from horse radish root. We make it and it is HOT.

Whatever name it goes by, I love it. Nothing better then some nice hot horseradish, or wasabi.

I always request a second serving of it as it is sooooo very good and my sinuses love it as well!

Usually fresh made on board.

I do believe it is made fresh - my favourite.

 

But, if you choose not to do that - have you tried Holsbros?

 

my favourite so far other than freshly made.

I love horseradish.... with beef... or with Bloody Mary too!

 

Also with beef..... English Coleman's mustard... not that sweet French stuff...

 

I sometimes use a bit of both, but sometime I scared I might be messing with nature and just enjoy the beef as it is!

 

As for pork and apple sauce, mint on lamb or cranberry on turkey... I'd rather be shot myself than putting that stuff on a poor animal!!!!!

There are several old abandoned "settlers" gardens around here, many still growing horseradish. Could I dig that and use it? Would that work? Anything I should look for in particular? Or is it safer to buy the horseradish root from the grocery store? (We seldom see it in the grocery store, but I might be able to get "hooked up" with some....)

 

I found a recipe, it certainly looks relatively easy.

Can't say I've ever tried beef with Colmans mustard, I'm far more into the horseradish and beef.

 

Cranberry on turkey, I do enjoy that. ;) Homemade cranberry sauce along with homemade dressing. Yum! :D

I saw Holbros on the walmart Canada site. I will order it, and try. No fresh horseradish around here for a few months yet ;)

[CowPrincess]

CruiseWhere, yes the entire "sinus" thing is one of the reasons I want to get some HOT horseradish in the house :)

 

kamloops50, thanks, it does sound like homemade is the route to go!

[CowPrincess]

Pathfinderess, I love wasabi too. One cruise we went into Code Red, and the fellow serving in the Lido was using an ice cream scoop to serve the wasabi. It was a bit too much ;)

My DH loved Atomic Horse Radish. He had it at some Ruth's Chris restaurants. :)

Whenever I made fresh horseradish from the root, when peeling it my eyes and nose would burn something awful. I used to put my hands out the window and close the window down on my wrists to help with the strong effect. :D DH and his good friend would eat it until they both were perspiring and panting for breath it was so hot.

We always buy the root in the store. Just be prepared for massive eye watering when you make it.

Just reading this I was almost starting to taste and smell the horseradish - WOW!!!!

[mariner]

Fresh is fine, but you need more than the prepared to get a good kick. Mix with sour cream (yogurt if you're health-conscious) and some fresh lemon juice.

Love the horseradish & Coleman's with beef. Always have a can of Coleman's on hand. Have the nicest little mustard port. A small Royal blue glass liner in a silver pot with a tiny spoon. Also love horseradish in a Bloody Mary. You speak my language, Stephen.:)

I'm particularly fond of Boar's Head horseradish. It comes in either the raw or cream style. Love the raw with prime rib and the cream or processed version on sandwiches. A little goes a long ways. :eek::D

[boscobeans]

Silver Spring Extra-Hot Prepared Horseradish is stocked in most supermarkets in this area.(upstate New York). It is hot.

 

If you grate your own remember that once you add vinegar the heat will stop developing. The longer you wait the hotter it gets. Wait too long and it will discolor so timing is important and tasting as it develops is very important.

I also make my own with Boar's Head horseradish, sour cream, a little mayo and Dijon, and sprinkle in a small amount of chopped chives or green onion if I have them on hand. So easy and so much better than the bottled horseradish sauce.

I agree, Atomic is the BEST! Just don't sniff the jar when you first open it.....sinus goes ballistic!

[boscobeans]

If you grate your own and want a little more heat mix a teaspoon or so of Coleman's dry mustard powder into the fresh grated radish slurry. Let the mix develop for about 3-4 minutes then add a teaspoon of vinegar.

My DH isn't fond of horseradish on his steaks. But he does love it on my pickled eggs and beats.

Thank you for those very important bits of information. I'm going to buy some horseradish root the next time I see it in the grocery store :D

Kozliks Horseradish Mustard is very good. That is what I use, and it is hot.
