Back when we were discussing Thanksgiving menus, Luvedaymentioned:
<<< We're doing :
Prime Rib with a fresh rosemary, garlic and salt crust
Red wine demi glace sauce
Horseradish cream sauce
Twice baked potatoes
Green beans
Tiramisu torte
Assorted nibbles >>>
Are you making your Horseradish cream sauce or buying it already
made? The only thing I've made with fresh horseradish has been the
period candied horseradish. I usually buy my horseradish sauce pre-
made, but I've been a bit disappointed in many of them. Way too mild.
That's even happening in the restaurants. I got introduced to
horseradish sauce with fried mushrooms at Bennigan's restaurant many
years ago. That was hot enough to bring tears to my eyes. I've often
tried fried mushrooms at other restaurants but have disappointed when
all they had was a wimpy ranch dressing or such to serve with them.
When we were at a Bennigan's recently, I was looking forward to my
old favorite and ordered it, and to my great disappointment found out
that they, too, now serve it with a ranch dressing. Sigh.
I think the Arby's horseradish sauce is my favorite commercial
horseradish sauce, since it is smooth and still has a bunch of kick
to it.
I tried the frozen pre-breaded mushrooms at home, once. They lost all
their breading in the hot oil. :-(
