Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup prepared horseradish, drained
- 1 tablespoon prepared white horseradish (for extra bite)
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Combine the sour cream and mayonnaise in a medium bowl.
- Stir in the drained prepared horseradish and the extra white horseradish.
- Add the Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
- Whisk all ingredients together until the sauce is smooth and fully combined.
- Taste the sauce and adjust salt or horseradish to your preference for tanginess.
- Cover the bowl and chill the sauce for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
Notes
- Drain the prepared horseradish well before adding it to the sauce; excess liquid thins the consistency.
- For a richer flavor, substitute heavy cream for half of the sour cream.
- If you prefer a milder sauce, reduce the amount of prepared horseradish to 3 tablespoons.
