Finding it hard to find it!
I like it with a proper kick and a tingle on your nose.

Any reccomendations?

Make your own.

The roots are available in mainstream supermarkets at about Easter time.

Peel these (under running water), and chop finely.

Pulverise with sour cream and/or beetroot for a delicious sauce that's a winner in sandwiches with either ham or beef.

Or mix some wasabi in with any standard horseradish sauce. Wasabi is a type of horseradish.

It's also dead easy to grow but, be warned, it can end up enormous!

Tried to make my own once, had to evacuate the kitchen as we did not set it correctly. Careful when making your own......

Trying some for the first time this year. I understand it can be worse than mint so it is in a large pot to see how it goes.

It'll need to be a large, deep pot. The root, the bit we're interested in, can get to a decent size. I'm not sure it's as prolific as mint though so would probably plant in the garden anyway.

If you want to buy it in a jar, ready to use, then you can't go wrong with Tracklements Strong Horseradish & Cream. It definitely has the ability to send flames into the nasal cavities. In fact, most Tracklements condiments are to be recommended - chilli jam and their piccalili are staples in our larder.
