Horseradish step by step

Some quick research gave me two reasons for the name.
This one is probably the most used one quote: erm originates from a mispronunciation of the German word "meerrettich" as "mareradish".
The other I will not repeat as it is rather family unfriendly. If you watch your own video it may come to you.
It's always a pleasure to follow your videos. Sadly I am almost fully caught up.

So the grinder just grinds like a meat grinder.i have a juicerthat grinds similar to what you have but the juicer presses the juice out leaving the dry

I'm not sure how I missed this video frim a year ago, but it was awesome! I must say that your PRECISE measurements HAS to be why your horseradish is so good!! 🤣🤣🤣

Just put on some goggles. Works great when cutting a lot of onions, so must be great for this 2

How can I buy some of your horseradish? I can never find any hot enough!

another great video

You guys are the Bomb!

Daniel I hope you get better.

Do you ship t-shirts or hats with your logo?

My Gram used to say if you had head congestion, just make some horseradish.

So how can I buy some of these?

if you wear a pair of anti-fog divers goggles ( available at Walmart for about 15-$20) they will stop the vapers from getting into your eyes and stop the pain and tears. I have a pair I wear when I chop large amounts of onions

I live in Amish country and we put horseradish on smoked sausage. SO GOOD.

We love you Daniel. I hope your arm is fine!

Now whats the trick to grow these roots that big????

The name horseradish is believed to come from a variation of the German name for it, which is “meerrettich” meaning sea radish. The English were said to mispronounce the German word “meer” and began calling it “mare radish.” Eventually, it was called horseradish.

Before you put them up for the year way don’t you wash and clean them up for the next time?

you farm boys ought to know why they call it horse radish, unless you Don't BREED horses at your farm. think about it.

Lol.... remember making this as a child. It was so pungent it had to be made outdoors, and the womenfolk press ganged unwilling children to turn the handle on the old meat grinder. My dad's favorite was the one made with beets. More power to all of y'all to do that less than lovely job!

Why don’t you wear goggles?

I grew, and love this condiment, we would eat spoonfuls 🤣👍❤️🇺🇸😀✝️

What size plate are you running that through? and ratio of root to vinegar? What is the red beet ratio too? Please

Great content thanks

Hi Andrew & veggie fam!
Have u guys considered running your horseradish thru a robot coupe ?
I worked in a restaurant for a long time that made horseradish, we wud run it thru a robot coupe and then a grinder ! You guys make it look mouth watering ! Despite the burn to the nose! Lol 😆

Hey Andrew, Love your videos. Is that a plain old fashion "meat" grinder like they sell at Cabela's?

orange radish = radish + carrot..? Yellow radish = radish + pumpkin..?

First of all thanks for the great video's. I just love how all of your family gets along so well. This one brings back memories. My mom an dad use to make horse radish an it was a crying adventure.

Let grandma do her cooking channel she will be great

In the early to mid 1900's horseradish sauce was always put on the table along side the butter. I've been growing a 20 ft row of Horseradish for about 9 years. I gathered some notes quite some time ago and thought I'd share them with you...
Horseradish (Armoracia rusticana)
A vigorous and sometimes invasive perennial. The plants grow to 3 feet tall by 2’wide. The root grows like the carrot and can go as deep as 3 feet. I space the root 1 foot in all directions. Cover the top of the root with 2 to 3 inches of soil. If you love horseradish you’ll want about 10 plants. They need at least ½ day of sun and can tolerate full sun just fine. Choose a permanent site because it will grow back every year. I recommend digging an 18 inch to 2 feet deep hole per plant or make a trench for multiple plants. because the roots grow as far down as 3 feet and the more organic material such as compost, sand and leaves that you add to your soil before you plant the horseradish it’ll be easier to dig the root out of the ground in the Fall. If you have the ability to plant into an 18” deep planting bag it would be an excellent choice as this makes it very easy to harvest and you can move it to non-grow sites such as pavement or tucked in an unused spot in the flower bed.
My personal experience is horseradish does best if you dress it with compost every 90 days rather than using a “plant food”. It’s quite drought tolerant, but the roots can become woody and weak-flavored if they go too long without water. The compost will regulate the moisture and feed the plant all at the same time. You can give them a boost with fish fertilizer any time you feel like it. Be careful because root rot can occur if the plants are overwatered.
The instructions say it’s ready to harvest after a frost kills the leaves. However I have harvested from September to April as needed and found it to be just as ripe and enjoyable every time. The root is at its hottest point when harvested in the Spring just before the new leaf growth begins.

Horseradish sauce
I make my sauce by peeling then chopping and adding 1 cup of root to the magic bullet with just enough water to mix into a very thick paste. Then I add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, 2 tablespoons of best foods mayo and ½ teaspoon of salt and mix until really smooth (about 5 minutes). The balance I’m looking for is to take enough of the heat out that I can enjoy the experience and to add just enough mayo to make it creamy without distracting from the horseradish flavor. Once you start eating fresh sauce you’ll never go back to store bought.
*************************************************************************************Every part of the horseradish plant has medicinal value.

The health benefits of horseradish are mainly attributed to its high nutrient and mineral content, which includes dietary fiber, vitamin C, folate, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and manganese, as well as its organic chemical composition of enzymes and oils, like sinigrin, a powerful glucosinolate.

The glucosinolates (10 times more than Broccoli): promote:
healthy cell growth (stimulate the activity and production of white blood cells)
increase the liver’s ability to detoxify carcinogens.
increase human resistance to cancer and environmental toxins.
relieve sinus and respiratory distress.
boost the immune system and fight against free radicals.
Fights urinary Tract Infections
destroy bacteria in the throat that can cause bronchitis, coughs and related problems.
Diuretic relief of water retention
horseradish vinegar has been used effectively to treat seborrhea (dandruff).
kidney stones
achy joints (rheumatism)
gallbladder disorders
intestinal worms in children.
weight loss
Lowers Blood Pressure
ease any digestive issues and regulate bowel movements
Improves Bone Health
Boosts Metabolism
raising your concentration level.
Antibacterial

Horseradish is rubefacient, an agent that stimulates blood flow below and to the surface of the skin. As such, this action makes the herb effective in poultices and as a very effective liniment or massaging agent to relieve muscular aches and pains, painful arthritic and rheumatic joints, and chronic rheumatism. gout, colic. Including its ability to aid in, lower blood pressure, alleviate respiratory conditions, build strong bones, improve the immune system, stimulate healthy digestion, promote heart health, and lower the chances of neural tube defects in infants. Most notably, horseradish may reduce the risk of cancer due to its high levels of glucosinolates.

Tea made from its root has been used as an expectorant, while tea brewed from its flowers can be used to fight the common cold. A poultice can also be made of its roots to externally treat joint discomfort. In addition, raw leaves of horseradish also fulfill a purpose as a natural analgesic and, pressed against the forehead, can eliminate headache pain. Furthermore, an infusion of horseradish has known antibiotic properties, which have been proven effective against pathogenic fungi.

Once inside the body, glucosinolates are broken down into powerful derivatives called isothiocyanates and indoles, which are believed to be the main cancer-preventive contributors of horseradish. processing actually improves its anticancer benefits, making it easier for us to benefit from its therapeutic powers. Which also induces cancer-protective genes. These derivatives appear to help protect against rectal and colon cancer, while also enhancing the activity of several liver enzymes used in detoxification processes.

horseradish can exacerbate problems for people with...kidney disorders, peptic ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease, hypothyroidism, and should be avoided.

I'd like to see a harvesting and planting of horseradish sometime. It seems like it's always hard to get fresh at the grocery store. Thanks for the video!

Awesome video would love to know about your potatoes next please

Wish I would have seen a little hand washing after wiping the tears. It feels like the horseradish prep isn’t very sanitary.

How long does the horseradish stay in the cooler till packaging?

BLESSINGS 💞

My Dad would make a horseradish sauce to be served with a beef roast and lingonberries ... So creamy, so fruity, so yummy!

market location?

Your voice just makes me smile! I had absolutely no interest in farming but your entire family keeps bringing back and I’m learning stuff, not that I’ll ever use it for anything. Thanks 😊

Are the leafs of horseradish also poisonous to horses?Anybody knows?

We did not get to see you plant or harvest that horseradish. Huge roots

Everyone's favourite family! ☺️☺️

Wow, Darren's voice was much lower than I expected!
