I grew up as a meat and potatoes kind of girl. It was always one of my favoite meals. That’s probably why I love this horseradish sauce so much. It’s perfect on a juicy steak (try this easy air fryer steak recipe), on top of a prime rib, or with cube steaks!

Horseradish Cream Sauce

This horseradish sauce is so easy to make, there’s no reason not to have it along with your next steak dinner! Horseradish has a really nice spice to it, and paired with these other ingredients the flavor adds a whole new layer to whatever you put it on. I’ve made it when I’ve had guests over, and they all agreed that it was the game changer for the evening.

I also love how you can put this sauce on so many different kinds of meat. I’ve tried it over a juicy tomahawk steak and it was amazing. It also goes great with a grilled steak or it can even dress up a skirt steak. Horseradish sauce it usually served over beef, but once you try it I think you’ll want to eat it on everything! This creamy horseradish sauce recipe is really great on chicken, a big prime rib roast, and then even a roast beef sandwich.

Ingredients

The quality of ingredients will really make the difference in this horseradish sauce. The best part about this sauce is it’s really simple ingredients that you probably already have! If you love spicy and sweet, you are going to really like this sauce. You can buy horseradish at your local grovery store. It is most likely in the condiment aisle or near the dips. You can find exact measurments below in the recipe card.

  • Sour Cream: Sour cream is the perfect base for this sauce. It is tangy with a little sweetness, which helps cut down on the spicy flavors of the horseradish.
  • Horseradish: You are looking for prepared horseradish, which is a paste usually in a jar. It has a few other ingredients like vinegar, but the main thing in it is horseradish.
  • Crushed Garlic: I really like getting little bites of garlic in the sauce, so I like to use crushed garlic.
  • Worcestershire Sauce: This sauce is the BEST thing to combine with horseradish. It is salty, savory, spicy, and sweet all at the same thing. It is amazing, you are going to love it!
  • White Vinegar: This vinegar is going to help keep the sauce good for longer, but it also adds a depth of flavor that kind of reminds me of a pickle. It’s the perfect thing to brighten this sauce up.
  • Kosher Salt: A high quality salt will make all the difference!
  • Black Pepper: Freshly ground black pepper has more flavor and adds a little spice.

Additions and Substitutions

You can really change up this horseradish sauce to fit your tastes! With just a few additions or substitutions you can make a whole new sauce. You are going to love making this sauce your own!

  • Substitutions for Sour Cream: You can easily use a nice yogurt as a substitute for sour cream. I like to use a Greek yogurt, like the plain unsweetened kind.
  • Make It Dairy Free: You can substitute the sour cream for a vegan mayonnaise or a vegan sour cream. I prefer the vegan sour cream over the mayo.
  • Adding Flavors: You can add Dijon mustard, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar instead of white, and anything else you think would be yummy!

Storing Leftovers

Horseradish sauce just gets more flavorful the longer it sits. I love pulling it out of the fridge 5 days later and tasting all of the amazing flavors. Here is how you store your leftover horseradish sauce.

  • In the Refrigerator: You can store your sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days.
