Description

This Russian Hren Horseradish recipe combines the bold flavors of horseradish and beets for a tangy and spicy condiment that pairs perfectly with meats and hearty dishes.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Horseradish:

  • 1/4 cup extra hot cream-style horseradish

For the Beets:

  • 2 large beets
  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar + 1/2 teaspoon
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt + 1/8 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beets: Wash the beets thoroughly and place them in a medium pot. Cover the beets with enough water to fully submerge them. Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar and 3/4 teaspoon of salt to the water.
  2. Cook the Beets: Bring to a boil and cook for about 1 hour, or until the beets are tender and easily pierced with a knife.
  3. Cool and Peel the Beets: Allow the cooked beets to cool to room temperature. Wear gloves to avoid staining your hands, then peel off the skins of the beets.
  4. Grate the Beets: Finely grate the peeled beets using a fine grater. Transfer the grated beets to a mixing bowl.
  5. Mix the Ingredients: Add 1/4 teaspoon of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of vinegar, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt to the grated beets. Mix well to combine.
  6. Add Horseradish: Stir in 1/4 cup of extra hot cream-style horseradish. Taste and adjust the flavor with additional salt, vinegar, or sugar if desired.
