How to Make Horseradish Made With Beets Fresh

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup white vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup cold water. Set aside to cool.
  3. Wash and peel 1 medium beet. Roughly chop the beet and 1 cup of fresh horseradish root. (Wear gloves!)
  4. In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, combine the chopped beet and horseradish.
  5. With the food processor running, gradually add the cooled vinegar mixture until the horseradish and beets are finely chopped and blended into a smooth paste. Add more vinegar if needed to reach desired consistency.
  6. Spoon the horseradish mixture into clean, sterilized glass jars with tight-fitting lids.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld. The flavor will mellow slightly over time. Store in the refrigerator; the more you open the jar, the weaker the flavor will become.
