Start by peeling the fresh horseradish root. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the outer skin and cut it into small chunks for easier processing.
Grate the horseradish using a food processor or hand grater. Be cautious as fresh horseradish is quite pungent; consider opening a window or working in a well-ventilated area.
Measure 3 to 4 tablespoons of the grated horseradish and transfer it to a medium mixing bowl. Store any remaining grated horseradish in an airtight container in the refrigerator for future use.
Add the white vinegar, granulated sugar, kosher salt, and lemon juice to the grated horseradish. Mix the ingredients together to combine and let it sit for 5 minutes. This step helps mellow and balance the flavor.
In a separate bowl, pour the heavy cream and whip it using a hand mixer or whisk until soft peaks form. Do not overwhip, as you want a light and airy texture.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the prepared horseradish mixture. Use a spatula to combine until smooth and uniform. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Transfer the whipped horseradish to a serving dish, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Serve chilled as a condiment with roasted meats, seafood, or as an accompaniment to vegetables.
