HORSERADISH (CANNED)

Steps:

• grated horseradish (trim skin with veggie peeler, wash and grind in a meat grinder or do in food processor) (I hear wearing goggles helps your eyes) Mix thoroughly with vinegar and salt using amounts as needed and pack into hot sterile jars.
• I usually process in a hot water bath for 10 min for pints.
• It is best to still store in the fridge, I think for colouring.
• If you want it creamy a client told me to put the whole mixture back into the food processor and puree a bit, I havent tried it yet but he said that is how the big companies do it.
• The heat all depends on the growing season and sometimes it gets hotter after stored.

HOMEMADE PREPARED HOT HORSERADISH

Steps:

• Place diced horseradish in a food processor; add a splash of cold water. Pulse on and off until mixture begins to blend. Scrape down sides of food processor container (the fumes are very strong, so keep your face away from the bowl and the room well ventilated).
• Continue blending, adding a bit more water if mixture seems too dry. Process until horseradish is finely ground. Wait 2 minutes before adding the vinegar and salt; supposedly this makes the horseradish hotter. After 2 or 3 minutes, add vinegar and salt. Continue processing until mixture is smooth and creamy or to your desired consistency, adding more water if necessary. Transfer to airtight storage containers. Refrigerate.
