Commercial Prepared Horseradish Help

[Skinsfan1311]

I cannot seem to find hot horseradish anymore, except at Bull Roasts, where they have large tubs of it.

I've pretty much tried them all...anything th.at's marked "hot" or "extra hot"... Tulkoff, Gold's, Inglehoffer, Bookbinder's, Kelchner's, Bubbie's, Reese, Dietz & Watson, etc.

I even tried one from Amazon called "Atomic Horseradish" but they're not that hot. I don't need anything crazy, like Nasal Napalm which is more of a food additive. I just want some good old-fashioned sinus-clearing radish.

Any recommendations?

+1 on beaver.
Or inglehoffer extra hot is good too.

Thanks...I just ordered a jar directly from their site. They have a free shipping promo thru 8/31. Does it clear your sinuses and make your eyes water?

Oh yeh. It caught me by surprise the 1st time I used it.

Try genuine wasabi. Smoke will come out of your ears.

this stuff packs a punch if you go that route https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I read an article that Wasabi is so expensive, much of the 'Wasabi' sold in the U.S. is actually horseradish. Not believing the article, I checked my squeeze bottle of Wasabi made by Kikkoman. Horseradish was the first ingridient.

It is pretty easy to grow your own. Kinda odd, you can snap a piece off the root and munch on it like a turnip, but after you put it in a food processor look out!

If you decide to grow your own, carefully consider where it's planted. It's one of those things that spreads and will be with you for life!

After living in my house for a couple of years we realized the mystery plant in a back corner was a horseradish!
You can control the heat somewhat by the size of grating vs blender and amount of time in the air.
Definitely prefer the homemade without all the cream. Just root.

Making your own is fairly easy and that way you can adjust the heat

I use beaver, inglehoffer (in fridge right now), and St.Elmo (also in fridge) those get used more like mayo or a spread. As an ingredient, I buy fresh and grate myself. Like for homemade horseradish sauce for roast, or shrimp cocktail.

Back in my youth in Worcester Mass, there was a horse-drawn cart that came around selling horseradish. That was some good stuff !!

I like Atlantic brand in the cooler section near the fish at HEB.

I can’t help. I get my horseradish from Tarnowski’s Keilbasa, and they make it themselves. If I use the same amount of theirs as I do any commercial horseradish, it blows me up completely: sneezing, nose running, brain on fire. I’m a hot sauce and hot mustard junkie; this is the horseradish equivalent of ghost peppers.

It’s awesome.

Just FYI, if you didn’t know already…Inglehoffer & Beaver are part of the same company, and there’s a lot of crossover between their respective products. Still worth a look, but don’t be too surprised if one extra hot is much the same as the other regardless of the label.

[FCDank]

Makes sense now.

[Skinsfan1311]

Crud!

I have no idea how hot it is though.

[jfmorris]

Huh. Who knew there were different kinds, haha!

I just buy Zatarain's Prepared Horseradish in a little jar at the grocery store, and haven't gone looking for any other options (yet).
