Ingredients 3 ingredients

  1. four tablespoonfuls of horseradish
  2. a teaspoonful of salt
  3. six tablespoonfuls of cream

Cook safely

  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. This is one of the most delightful sauces to serve with left-over meats, especially beef.
  2. Press from the vinegar four tablespoonfuls of horseradish, add a quarter of a teaspoonful of salt, and work in the yolk of an egg.
  3. Whip six tablespoonfuls of cream to a stiff froth, stir it gradually into the horseradish and dish at once.
