Description

THIS IS FRESH HORSERADISH ROOT. THIS COMES FROM A LOCAL HORSERADISH FARM IN IL. YOU WILL RECIEVE EITHER A WHOLE ROOT OR SEVERAL PIECES OF FRESH ROOT WHICH EVER ADDS UP TO 1/2 POUND. The plant is probably native to southeastern Europe and western Asia. It is now popular around the world. It grows up to 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) tall, and is cultivated primarily for its large, white, tapered root.[ The intact horseradish root has hardly any aroma. When cut or grated, however, enzymes from the now-broken plant cells break down sinigrin (a glucosinolate) to produce allyl isothiocyanate (mustard oil), which irritates the mucous membranes of the sinuses and eyes. Grated mash should be used immediately or preserved in vinegar for best flavor. Once exposed to air or heat it will begin to lose its pungency, darken in color, and become unpleasantly bitter tasting over time. Freshly grated horseradish emits fumes that can make your nose run and irritate your eyes, so prepare it in a well-ventilated area or even outside if your eyes are extremely sensitive. Wrap in a damp paper towel to store, place in a plastic bag and refrigerate for several weeks. Note: Horseradish can develop soft or moldy spots without affecting the quality of the root itself. This is a natural characteristic of Horseradish and should simply be removed by scraping off. Horseradish should be scrubbed with a brush under running water, prior to use. Peel before using or grate with a sharp metal grater in the desired amount. THANK YOU FOR ORDER FROM A LOCAL USA SMALL FAMILY COMPANY. GOD BLESS , JACOBS LADDER ENT. USA PRODUCT , NOT FROM CHINA.
