Tips
- For the most authentic flavor, use fresh, high-quality spices and make sure to let the sauce chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Adjust the horseradish quantity to match your heat preference - start with a small amount and gradually increase for a personalized kick.
- Use a whisk or electric mixer for smoother, more consistent sauce texture.
- Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, allowing the flavors to continue developing.
- For an extra flavor boost, try using smoked paprika instead of regular paprika to add depth to the sauce.
- Always taste and adjust seasonings before serving to ensure the perfect balance of flavors.
