Ingredients
  

For the Cracked Black Pepper Horseradish Cream Sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp prepared horseradish
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Salt to taste

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or Spoon
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Refrigerator

Method
 

  1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, prepared horseradish, Dijon mustard, cracked black pepper, and lemon juice. Use a whisk or a spoon to mix until fully combined. Ensure there are no lumps, and the mixture is smooth.
  2. Step 2: After mixing, taste your sauce and add salt as needed. Remember, the horseradish already brings some heat, so start with a small amount of salt and adjust according to your preference.
  3. Step 3: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This resting time allows the flavors to meld beautifully, enhancing the overall taste.
  4. Step 4: After chilling, give the sauce a quick stir and serve it alongside your favorite dishes. Enjoy it with roasted meats, seafood, or as a flavorful dip for fresh veggies!

Notes

For an extra kick, consider adding a dash of hot sauce or more horseradish. If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add a splash of milk or cream to the sauce.
