Horseradish Harvest. 11.23.17 |
Prepared Horseradish. 11.23.17 |
Prep is very easy. Wash off the soil, pare off the skin so the remaining root is pure white. Cut into chunks. Chop in food processor to tiny chunks but not pureed. Drop into jar with vinegar. I used white vinegar. Store in fridge. Don't sniff too aggressively - this stuff is potent!
I did re-plant some of the smaller roots, in a different raised bed, for easy harvest next year.
Chickens liked eating the leaves. They ate every scrap of horseradish leaf, that I gave them. I sniffed the leaves, and they didn't seem potent like the root.
