Comments
This condiment is a genuine time-saver and uses mostly pantry staples available at any Charlotte grocer—mustard, mustard seed, vinegar, honey, molasses, and garlic are easy finds at Harris Teeter or ALDI. Fresh horseradish root (the star ingredient) is seasonal and may require a specialty stop at a farmers market or ethnic market in the Charlotte area, but powder or jarred horseradish from the condiment aisle is a reliable backup. At roughly $1.50 total for a yield that makes 8–12 servings of condiment, the per-serving cost is negligible. The stated ten minutes is honest for blending or whisking, though grating fresh horseradish will add five to ten minutes and a tear-inducing experience. This works as a pantry builder and gift-able preserve rather than a standalone weeknight dish.
