Make this creamy horseradish sauce using prepared horseradish for a zesty, tangy complement to prime rib, roast beef, or steak. It is simple to prepare and elevates your meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup prepared horseradish, drained
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream, heavy cream, prepared horseradish, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice.
  2. Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Stir in the salt and black pepper. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed.
  4. If using, fold in the fresh chives.
  5. Cover the bowl and chill the sauce in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to blend.
  6. Serve cold alongside prime rib, roast beef, or steak.

Notes

  • Drain the liquid from the prepared horseradish well before measuring to prevent a watery sauce.
  • For a sharper flavor, use less heavy cream or increase the amount of horseradish slightly.
  • This sauce is a great condiment for sandwiches and burgers.
