Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 Cup Whole Milk
  • ¼ Cup Half-And-Half
  • ½ Teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • ½ Teaspoon Granulated Sugar
  • ½ Teaspoon Ground Mustard
  • ¼ Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • Ground Nutmeg A Pinch
  • 3-5 Tablespoons Prepared Horseradish
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice

Instructions

  • Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a medium pot over medium-low heat.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and stir for 1 to 2 minutes, or until smooth and light golden.
  • Add 1 cup of whole milk, 1/4 cup at a time, whisking carefully. Add 1/4 cup half-and-half and bring to a moderate boil, stirring constantly.
  • Stir and simmer for about two minutes, or until it reaches a sour cream consistency.
  • Take it off the heat. Add 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and a touch of nutmeg.
  • Mix in 3 tablespoons of prepared horseradish and 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice. If you believe it requires more horseradish, taste it and add more.
  • Allow to cool completely. Store in an airtight jar until ready to serve. If desired, garnish with 1 tablespoon minced chives before serving.
