Be sure and grate/grind the horseradish in a well ventilated room. At least the roots from my garden had me literally in tears. But worth it.
This is a great addition to Polish (and other Eastern European) Easter foods. Terrific with ham or kielbasa, and excellent with hard boiled eggs and buttered rye bread.
