Horseradish

We collected lots of roots growing in railway track ballast on a disused line. We washed the roots thoroughly then liquidised them and packed the resultant mush into plastic yoghurt pots before storage in the deep freeze. Use the smallest roots only as they have less fibrous core (which is not so strong in flavour and somewhat chewy in texture) and do not need peeling. If you freeze down small batches you can easily defrost one and blend it with Neanderthin mayonaise. Use it to accompany your Sunday roast beef instead of traditional mustard - deeeelicious!
