Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons prepared horseradish aka jarred horseradish
  • ½ cup sour cream full-fat
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise full fat
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoons chives or scallions chopped - optional

Instructions

  • In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the prepared horseradish, sour cream, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
  • Gently stir in the chopped chives, if desired. Taste for seasoning and add more if necessary. Serve.

Notes

  • Yields: This recipe makes 3/4 cup horseradish sauce, which is ideal for 6-7 servings. The calorie information below is per serving.
  • Prepared Horseradish: Also known as jarred horseradish, you can buy prepared horseradish from your grocery store. You can make this recipe using grated fresh horseradish, but if you go in that direction, I would recommend starting with 1 tablespoon of it (and increasing it from there), as the fresh variety has a more potent flavor.
  • Make Ahead: You can make this recipe a few days ahead and keep it in the fridge in an airtight container. Just be sure to give it a good stir before serving.
  • Storage: Place in an airtight container (or a mason jar) and store it in the fridge for up to 7 days.
  • Freezing: Place it in resealable freezer-safe bags or ice cube trays (in smaller portions) and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge a few hours before you are ready to serve it.
