Note from Cheri:
I love horseradish because it suh a distinctive
flavor to all kinds of foods, and also because it figures
in one of my fondest childhood memories. You see, my
father had just mixed a batch of horseradish with beets
and had taken a generous spoonful to taste. Well, on
that day the unpredictable root was hotter than usual.
Dad turned bright red and danced around the kitchen,
slapping the top of his head. To my seven year old eyes,
it was the funniest thing IĠd ever seen. Did the incident
curb my father's appetite for the hot condiment? Hardly,
he ate more that evening at dinner and I too have had
a healthy love and respect for horseradish ever since.
