Lay the horseradish root on the chopping board.

Grate it finely into the small bowl, keeping your face away from it; the fumes are strong.


Stir in the vinegar straight away, so the horseradish keeps its heat and colour.
White wine vinegar · 1 tsp

Add the mustard.
English mustard · 0.5 tsp
Add the sugar.
Caster sugar · 0.5 tsp
Pour the chilled cream into the mixing bowl.
Double cream · 150 ml
Whip it with the whisk until it just holds soft peaks; stop before it stiffens.


Fold the horseradish mixture into the cream.


Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes so the flavour develops.
