Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons Prepared horseradish
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, pour the cold heavy cream.
Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip the heavy cream on medium speed until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
In a separate bowl, combine the prepared horseradish, sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and blended.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the horseradish mixture using a silicone spatula. Be careful to maintain the airy texture—fold just until combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or horseradish for a stronger kick.
Transfer the fluffy horseradish sauce to a serving bowl and garnish with freshly chopped chives, if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 days. Allow the sauce to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving for best texture.
