3 days and counting

The horseradish mustard sampler was delivered last Saturday to my judge. I hope that this has gotten him excited about this Saturday's tasting. Yes, Saturday is the day for my horseradish challenge. And it is time. I have made each dish at least once already (or some version of it) and as well have made prepared horseradish and mustard along the way. So bring on Saturday and then say good bye to horseradish until next winter...or maybe forever.

Saturday's menu:

Tower of salt crusted beets with horseradish cream
Baked oysters with fresh horseradish and parmesan
Homemade potato and sweet potato fries with horseradish infused vinegar

I will be also serving champagne as I learned this week that champagne takes away the bite of horseradish...thus cleansing the palette of my judges before the next taste.

Wish me luck. I will back Saturday with the results...and hopefully pictures (although my sister's photographer husband is making the picture thing a little tough). Did you see her pics?

  1. Hey - I got your tower photo. If I wasn't insanely allergic to beets I would be even more excited. It did look fabulous thought. Excited to see how everything else everything turned out.
