RECIPE TIPS
DIFFERENT FISH & LOWER FAT?
You can make this dip with other kinds of smoked fish, or even drained tinned tuna. You can also use it as a spread. To lower the fat in this recipe simply use half-fat crème fraîche instead of soured cream.

Do you mean fresh grated horseradish?

Hi, thanks for checking. This should be horseradish sauce in a jar - you can use 'creamed' horseradish sauce or 'hot' horseradish sauce - the latter is hotter/less creamy. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

Loved this, didn't read the comments before but will try with lemon and pepper next time. Only used half the horseradish as was worried kids wouldn't like it otherwise.

Delicious, agree with all the other comments to add lemon and pepper - I blitzed mine quickly in a food processor. Super quick and tasty.

I used hot horseradish (rather than creamy one) and still found that adding a dash of fresh lemon juice was necessary to gave it a much needed lift. After that: perfect for scooping with celery sticks or lettuce leafs.
