Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup prepared horseradish, drained well
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Drain the prepared horseradish thoroughly using a fine-mesh sieve or by pressing it between paper towels. This step removes excess liquid and concentrates the flavor.
- In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream, drained horseradish, Dijon mustard, and white vinegar.
- Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Season the sauce with salt and black pepper. Stir again to incorporate.
- Taste the sauce. If you want more heat, add a small amount of extra horseradish.
- Cover the bowl and chill the sauce in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld.
Notes
- For a thicker sauce, use full-fat sour cream. For a tangier flavor, substitute half of the sour cream with plain Greek yogurt.
- This sauce is best when made ahead. It keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
- If you want a copycat flavor similar to steakhouse recipes, add 1/4 teaspoon of prepared white horseradish for extra bite.
