Chrzan (Horseradish)
|
Ciocia Martha Dankowska says that food processors will not work for this! They create a mushy effect. She suggests that you may want to grate the root on the back porch so as not to overcome the members of the household with its power.

RECIPE:
Grate horseradish root. Food processors will not work for this--they can't preserve the delicate balance between fine grating and excessive wateriness. Add some salt, some sugar (app. 4 T) and juice from 2 lemons. Add about 5 spoonfuls of boiling water. Place in a clean glass jar and store in refrigerator. For Easter, most cooks add some beet juice to produce the pinkish color signifying the Lord's Passion. This recipe produces 1 med. jar. Most cooks produce large batches. INGREDIENTS: 1 horseradish root
