Fresh
horseradish is in many supermarkets. Choose roots that are
firm with no sign of blemishes or withering. The roots should
be peeled and grated before using. Store in the refrigerator
in plastic bags.
It's most
often grated and used in sauces or as a condiment with fish or
meat. Mix with sour cream for a tasty sauce for brisket or
roast beef or use as a sandwich spread.
