Urtatim gave a number of sauce recipes including this horseradish sauce:
<<< Horseradish-Honey Sauce
Spanish, de Nola, Libro de Guisados, 1529
Original
Translated from the original by Lady Brighid ni Chiarain
<snip>
Recipe by Anahita
based on redaction by Lady Brighid ni Chiarain
Makes over 1 quart of sauce
1 lb. fresh horseradish root, finely grated
<snip>
WARNING: Don't lean over the blender, the bowl,
or the pan without acknowledging that there will
be rising horseradish fumes.
NOTES:
1. I think some folks thought they were having
some sort of transcendent experience when they
ate this. It was quite strong but quite good and
excellent company for the pork. >>>
I'm not sure that cries of "Oh my Gawd! water. WATER!, Okay, give me
that bottle of wine. Glug, glug, glug." should be taken as evidence
of a transcendental experience. :-)
Thank you for the wonderful assortment of sauces, and especially for
the two horseradish ones. I don't know if I had them previously. I
forgot to mention this file in my earlier message on sauce files, but
then I don't remember if it has much on horseradish sauces. I think
it does have the period recipe for candied horseradish, though. Which
turns out to be pretty mild if you soak the chopped horseradish for
seven days, as it calls for.
