Making Horseradish Sauce

[mountnman100]

Loved it. Can't wait to make some. I've read everything about when to harvest, but what has your experience taught you about harvesting? Spring and Fall?

[Myk63]

@mountnman100 I grow enough that I harvest both fall and spring if I have the time. The saying is any month with an R. I think spring is hotter usually.

[contreeman]

the way you explained it is really simple. but i think i'm not gonna be able to make it. the simple reason is i can't afford the prime rib to use it on. GOD BLESS great video

[Myk63]

@contreeman That's why I put it on a hotdog. :)

[Tuuktalus]

I wear a painters mask when I make it. I might try the goggle thing next time too. The best thing to do is ask an unsuspecting person to smell it.

[Myk63]

@Tuuktalus LOL, I did that the first time. He hasn't fallen for it since.

[DownUnderDoug]

I like it, never seen it made before, thanks for showing it.

C ya

[Myk63]

@DownUnderDoug Many people make it outside. It will gas you out if the processor is leaky.

[fartroids]

Horseradish sauce! Yum Yum Yum! Fartroids likey like! Yup Yup Yup! Fartroid no have horses on our planet! hee hee hee. Great video! Thanks for letting us know about it. :-)

[Myk63]

@fartroids Sounds more like a bean planet. You're welcome.

[fartroids]

@Myk63 Ah! LOL Yup Yup Yup! Lots of beans on Fartroid planet. Make ship go faster faster! Warpie warp! :-)

[WambliPeta]

Great vid my man!! I'm cry'n too....Well that may be a side effect of LMAO while watching you cringe, cough and cry every time you opened the food processor x-D.... I may have woke up my neighbors when you smelled it x-D I'm a big fan of woebers horseradish sauce, but i bet that stuff is like woebers on steroids ;-) Good call on the Miracle Whip. That would have been my choice as well 8-)

[Myk63]

@WambliPeta I had to search Woebers, Sandwich Pal, that's the one I like when it's not in season to make my own. It's not quite the same texture, I think they use dehydrated and powdered.

Last fall's wasn't too hot (but hotter than any store bought). This spring's was a lot hotter. Hopefully this hot dry year made it hotter still.

Miracle Whip is the best I've found for keeping it hot and keeping it a long time. I think it needs the professional preservatives.

[WambliPeta]

@Myk63 I know hot and dry make "regular" radishes hot, so I'm sure the same applies here. "professional preservatives".... Well you're eating them anyway, so you may as put them to work for you ;-) Side note... I've benn told to harvest horseradish before it is two yrs old, otherwise it will be too woody..I have no practical knowledge (yet), but this is what I have been told

[konto1313]

Hey just what I thought also about hotness. Love your vids very funny some of them as you have a great sence of humor by sounds of it.

[Myk63]

@konto1313 Making horseradish sauce was much funnier when I used an old leaky food processor.

[konto1313]

I love horseradish also and your video made me cry laughing. Anyways last year I dug some up and made some but it is not that strong and I waited along time before adding vinigar to the mix. Is there different varieties of the root crop one would be stronger than another do you know.

[Myk63]

@konto1313 I don't know about varieties but different years and seasons have different levels of heat. These were much hotter the following spring and I think fall is supposed to be hotter.

[adecheine]

I will have to try it that way! To funny your killin me here!

[Myk63]

@adecheine My old food processor leaked so bad I'd have to leave the kitchen. Your bullet seems to seal it up very well.

[Myk63]

@laig46 I think the saying goes, any month with an R.

[Myk63]

@laig46 Or in the spring.

[DearestBecky]

My brother-in-law loves that stuff. You looked like that was agony to make. I don't know how you all can eat that stuff. It has to be acquired taste. I bet that opens up the sinuses. Hehe.

[Myk63]

@DearestBecky It's been worse, my last food processor leaked. It would take hours for my eyes to get over it. It definitely works on the sinuses.

[GreatGig1]

That is a lot of horseradish! I can only imagine what that was like! After watching this, I don't think I'll be making any horseradish sauce anytime soon. I think that would be a great time for a gas mask. By the looks of things, that could make a great biological weapon...LOL

[Myk63]

@GreatGig1 It only made a little over a pint. It will last me until the rest is dormant and hopefully hotter.

I've wondered why they don't use it instead of pepper spray.

[mehquig]

Next time, don't torture yourself... Get a gas mask.

[Myk63]

@mehquig I've heard of that in countries and times where gas masks were issued.

[ninjajessie1]

I love horseraddish, tasty. I bet its good freshly made, Ive only ever had it bought at the store.

LOL@googles, that is a good idea haha.

That is some powerful raddish, hahaha.

[Myk63]

@ninjajessie1 Eventually goggles trap the gas in with your eyes, but they work for short periods.

[jellybean4501]

wow, you know it's some serious cooking when you need to wear goggles! haha

I like a little horseradish once in a blue moon, I bet it's better home made though! Why did you sniff it! LOL (I would have done the same thing) lol

[Myk63]

@jellybean4501 You have to sniff to see how strong it is, unless it's already knocking you down.

[1DRock37167]

I love horseraddish! Its best when Im crying and my nose is running and I cant smell anything any more:-) I got some horseraddish cheddar not to long ago that was awesome!

[Myk63]

@1DRock37167 It works best to make me cry and my nose run. :)

I'm going to have to look for that cheese.

[WambliPeta]

@1DRock37167 I don't know if you have ever had Amish curd cheese, but I've had some with horseradish and it's freaking amazing!! Seriously , I can eat it like popcorn 8-). My step mom gets some up around Coldwater, MI.

[1DRock37167]

@WambliPeta Sounds awesome!

[AxeMoose]

Wasabi is so much more fun to do this with :) Trust me if you try it - have a window open and be near it.

[Myk63]

@AxeMoose I wonder if I could grow that. I'll have to search the internet before spring.

[Myk63]

@billyCtv I think you lost me. Unless you mean the scrambled eggs on the NRA hat, which does sound pretty good. I hope I remember that the next time I make eggs.

[Myk63]

@DogWalkingTall Where's the fun in that? No sinus clearing or feeling of someone punching you in the back of the head from the inside. You would miss out on the breath taking feeling of love. Plus you know that endorphin high you get from fasting?

[Myk63]

@billyCtv I think the commercial cream style is made with powder. This is like a cross between grated and cream.

[imperceptibleme]

I've never eaten Horse radish but I always wanted to. I have second thoughts on it now! haha.

[Myk63]

@imperceptibleme No Horsey sauce on an Arby's sandwich, ever? That was my first introduction to it.

Once it's made it doesn't gas you out like that.

[imperceptibleme]

@Myk63 I've had an Arby's sandwich but noooo never horseradish on it. That was when I was a kid. Been a long time since I was at an Arby's thought. haha

[greggfla]

Man, I LOVE horseradish! I slice up cheddar cheese and smear it on with a dab of spicy brown mustard! I kid you not, sometimes I even put on some tabasco with it! Good stuff! Very cool! I'd love to try some homemade horseradish, I bet it's much better then what I get from the store! Love it on hot dogs too!

[Myk63]

@greggfla I like a large amount in mashed potatoes. I think I've put a bunch in grits before too.

Once I figured out to use Miracle Whip it got better than store bought.
