Prepare this simple, tangy horseradish sauce in minutes for serving with prime rib, roast beef, or steak.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup prepared horseradish, drained
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine the sour cream and mayonnaise in a medium bowl.
  2. Stir in the drained prepared horseradish and lemon juice.
  3. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Mix until the sauce is smooth and fully combined.
  5. Cover the bowl and chill the sauce for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Drain the prepared horseradish well; excess liquid makes the sauce thin.
  • For a sharper flavor, use fresh grated horseradish instead of prepared.
  • Adjust the amount of horseradish to control the heat level.
