Author Notes
I adapted this recipe from somewhere a million years ago. It is the perfect little something to accompany fish, shell fish, or rare roast beef. I think that I first started serving it with kabobs and now I even use it as a base for slaw. - MyCommunalTable —MyCommunalTable
Test Kitchen Notes
I would never, ever have thought to combine horseradish with orange zest and juice. What a delicious concoction! The orange magically holds in check the boisterousness of the generous amount of horseradish used, while the cultured and sweet creams provide a rich smoothness. The touch of mustard is brilliant, too. I used this in a carrot salad and in my favorite salted cabbage salad, and also served it with some cold leftover pork shoulder. I halved the recipe, thinking I wouldn’t need 2 ½ cups. That worked just fine, but I was dead wrong about not needing that much. I’ll be making more, soon. - AntoniaJames —AntoniaJames
Ingredients
-
1/2 cup
greek yogurt
-
1/2 cup
mayonnaise
-
1/2 cup
white horseradish, drained or squeezed out
-
2 t. tablespoons
fresh orange zest
-
1 1/2 tablespoons
Dijon mustard
-
1/2 cup
heavy whipping cream

Pinch

fresh squeezed orange juice
-
salt & pepper, to taste
Directions
-
Combine yogurt, mayonnaise, horseradish, orange zest, splash or slight squeeze of orange juice, and mustard in a bowl.
-
In another bowl whip heavy whipping cream until it forms peaks. (I like my cream quite thick, while my sister likes her's whipped to soft peaks. You're call.)
-
Fold the first bowl into the whipped cream. Then add sugar, salt and pepper. Taste, adjust seasoning. Will hold in fridge for half a day as a sauce or couple days if you use it as a base for slaw. Taste good served immediately as well.
