Name: Classic Horseradish Cream Sauce
Total time: 40 min
Ingredients: 1/2 cup heavy cream; 1/2 cup prepared horseradish; 1 teaspoon table salt; 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Why This Recipe Works

In this classic accompaniment to prime rib and other roasts, we used a one-to-one ratio of prepared horseradish to heavy cream to ensure that the sauce had a vibrant pungency. Whisking the cream just until thickened before folding in the horseradish gave the condiment a beautifully lush consistency.

Instructions

Whisk cream in medium bowl until thickened but not yet holding soft peaks, 1 to 2 minutes. Gently fold in horseradish, salt, and pepper. Transfer to serving bowl and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour before serving.
