Cooking Tips for Horseradish Sauce for Raw Oysters
- Fresh Horseradish: For the best flavor, use freshly grated horseradish if possible. It provides a sharper, spicier kick than pre-prepared varieties.
- Adjust Spice Level: Start with half the hot pepper sauce and taste, adding more if you prefer a spicier sauce.
- Acidity Boost: Fresh lime juice brings a tangy brightness. For a milder citrus note, substitute lemon juice.
- Storage: Prepare the sauce just before serving for maximum freshness, but you can refrigerate it for up to one day if needed.
- Serving Tip: Serve the sauce in a small dish on ice alongside the oysters to keep both at a refreshing, chilled temperature.
