Horseradish Root

Horseradish Root
(Horseradish Root)  The root of the horseradish is usually washed, peeled, and ground and sold in its processed form in jars; but it is also found as a whole root in the produce section of most larger supermarkets.  The raw horseradish root is much spicier than the processed form.  It can be stored in the vegetable bin of your refrigerator for several weeks.  The inside of the horseradish root should be white.  Select only firm roots.  Fresh raw horseradish root is excellent for making spicy salad dressings, dips and sandwich spreads.  See the nutritional chart below for prepared horseradish.  We could not find the nutritional data for the raw root.

Vegan FlagThe above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
