Okay I have had a go.Looked on the internet and tried to work out ratios. What annoys me is 1/4 cup of double cream. Here in the UK we have British standard measurements and European measurements. so what is the size of an American standard cup?
I tend to be as accurate as possible and weigh everything in grams including liquids. Weighing what’s left afterwards to see what is used. So, here is what I have.
120g ground horse radish
87g Double cream
50g Mayonnaise
* No Vinegar, mustard or sugar. supermarket mayo has vinegar, mustard, sugar as well as other ingredients anyway.
Approx. 87p for 300g
A bit more experimentation needed here. The mayo does help bring out the creaminess but I think a little less next time maybe 30g and let the horseradish soak up the cream first adding the mayo as needed. Never had any white vinegar so don’t know what affect 10g of white vinegar would have on this.
If TaxiLady wants to try this, chopping and grinding horseradish is worse than onions. You tend to recover a bit with onions. Not with horseradish.
If others want to have a go and post back changes this would be good. We spend too much time buying of a supermarket shelf. I make better prawn cocktail sauce than a supermarket. Supermarket producers create these products with a spoon in one hand and a calculator in the other, also, you can grow your own horseradish but grow it in a large wooden box. Plant it in the garden and it will take over your garden.
