A great dressing on anything you can think of to use with it. Green salad. Slaw. Deviled eggs. Sandwiches. Chilled veggies (for dip). Potatoes. Potato salad. The list goes on. And on. I've also made variation of this, born of necessity of not having creme fraiche in house when wanting to whip this up, of using about 1 generous tablepoon of mayo in place of it and then a little more lemon juice. Wonderful as written. Also good modified.

Just made this dressing tonight and used it to dress my shredded cabbage on beef and fish tacos. Loved it.

I saved this last year and it sort of got lost in my saved recipes section, so it was a great remender to see it in the contest this week. I made it this weekend and it's just a delicious, tangy dressing. I just used it over salad to counterpoint a saltier dish, but I am thinking of lots of ways to use it. thanks!

Made this last night for a potato, bean and radish salad. It was fabulous!! Just the right balance of flavors. It's amazing how the honey makes this a real standout.

Oh man, I just used this to braise some savoy cabbage. Definitely not was I envisioning when I first put the dressing together, but really good! Ate it over noodles with sausage and it was a perfect dinner...

I love horseradish!!! And I absolutely adore horseradish sauce. This one sounds like a keeper!! I'm bookmarking it now. I always make my dressings in a small mason jar....so easy to just shake it up! Thanks for sharing!!

Epic. Truly epic. I just had this on leftover salmon for lunch. I've been looking for this for a long time. It has just achieved instant "Staple" status in my kitchen. I plan to use it on my warm German style potato salad with bacon and fennel (which is pickled in champagne vinegar -- the recipe for the fennel and the potato salad are posted on this site) later this week. ;o)

I see a Savoy cabbage slaw with apples . . . . on crostini with smoked salmon . . . . on a simple baked potato, with snips of garlic chives . . . . I can see how I might have to make a large jar of this, soon. ;o)

ooh I just dug up a fresh horseradish root from my garden..how do you think that would work???
I am totally seeing this with 1) smoked trout & apples & beets 2) arugula, scallions and radishes & sliced grilled steak salad 3) somehow involved with a sandwich....like the cabbage slaw idea, that would be AMAZING on pulled pork.

I've never tried it with fresh horseradish root, but I'm sure it would be amazing! Let me know how it turns out.

I could also see tossing this with some Brussels sprouts, lightly steamed, and small pieces of crisp bacon . . . . . love horseradish and bacon together. Yummmmmm.;o)

LOVE the Brussels sprouts suggestion. Rather than steamed, what about raw? Shaved very thin and crunchy on a mandoline (like slaw) - and still with bits of bacon! YUM.

I think Amanda and Merrill may have given us our summer salad. Watercress Shrimp and this dressing sound soooooo goooood. What a great dressing thanks for sharing it.

Big horseradish lover too - especially in creamy sauces like this. This would be perfect on a rare roast beef sandwich, with some soft lettuce, maybe a slice of ripe juicy tomato. I am seriously salivating just thinking about it now.
