7 recipes for making horseradish at home

The most delicious dishes are made from freshly grated horseradish. Since it is not sold in its entire form in supermarkets, you should try to buy it at the market. You will have to peel the roots and immediately rub them (if you can stand it) or grind them in a meat grinder. To avoid crying over this insidious vegetable, you can try putting a plastic bag on the meat grinder.
