Frequently asked questions

What does horseradish butter consist of?
Just two ingredients: 200 grams butter and 30 grams grated horseradish. The recipe makes about 8 servings.
What is meant by "prepared as above"?
The recipe refers to the method for the preceding butter blends in the book: the butter is creamed/beaten until soft and fluffy, and the grated horseradish is thoroughly mixed in. The butter is then shaped or chilled before serving.
What is horseradish butter used for?
It belongs to the chapter "Hot and cold small dishes / Butter blends" in Stor kokebok (1914, p. 7), and is used as an accompaniment – e.g. with meat, fish and on open sandwiches.
How long does it take?
About 10 minutes in all, since you only need to grate the horseradish and stir it into the butter.
