HORSERADISH CREAM SAUCE

HORSERADISH CREAM SAUCE

By Gloria Pitzer, as seen in… Gloria Pitzer’s Cookbook – Best Of The Recipe Detective (Balboa Press; Jan. 2018, p. 191). [A revised reprint of Gloria Pitzer’s Better Cookery Cookbook (Secret RecipesTM, St. Clair, MI; May 1983, 3rd Edition).]

I like to use Shedd’s Old-Style Sauce or the Kraft brand for this hot, but creamy sauce. In many parts of the world, my readers can’t always find our American products, so I attempted an at-home version.

INGREDIENTS:

5-ounce bottle horseradish

½ cup light vinegar

1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

6 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon garlic powder

2 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon pepper

1 cup Hellman’s or Kraft’s mayonnaise

¼ cup corn oil

1 cup cold water

¼ cup cornstarch

2 raw egg yolks

¼ cup margarine

INSTRUCTIONS:

Put the first 8 ingredients through a blender on high for 1 minute or until smooth. Pour into a bowl and set aside. In another bowl, combine mayonnaise and oil, beating with electric mixer on medium speed, until well-mixed. Set this aside too.

Put water, cornstarch and egg yolks through the blender on high-speed about 30 seconds. When smooth, pour into 1 ½-quart sauce pan and stir in the first mixture of 8 ingredients. Turn heat to medium-high, stirring constantly until thickened and it resembles a pudding.

Remove from heat. Cool for 15 minutes or to lukewarm. Stir in mayonnaise, beating on lowest speed of electric mixer to combine. Then beat in margarine – very gently, on lowest speed. If you beat it too vigorously or at too high of a speed, it tends to thin-out!

Pour into a quart-sized jar and cap tightly. Refrigerate it for 24 hours before using. This allows it to thicken, and for flavors to blend properly. Makes 1 quart. Keeps refrigerated up to 6 weeks, if tightly covered. Do not freeze this sauce.

NOTE: if you do not have a blender, you can use an electric mixer, keeping the speed on high, where directed for blending on high-speed and so on. The blender, however, produces a smoother product!
