Horseradish Powder

It is a member of the mustard family and was used by early Greeks as a rub for back pain and as an aphrodisiac. The head-clearing vapor and biting heat are created when the root is cut or scraped. After about 15 minutes the heat will dissipate unless an acid like lemon juice or vinegar is added. This powder should be mixed with cold water to make a paste and refrigerated for 10-15 minutes to reach its maximum potency. Then use immediately as its strength will diminish with time.

Suggested uses: Use it like mustard on cold meats like pork and roast beef. Add it to tomato sauce for seafood or mixed with cream cheese as a spread for sandwiches. Also try it on beets.
