  1. This was pretty good, but way too rich in the end for me. I would cut wayyyy back on the half & half next time.
     
  2. This was a big hit -- I was worried I was over-generous with the horseradish, didnt realise how hot it was, but everyone loved this novel twist on an old favourite, definitely a make-again! Thank you for sharing!!
     
  3. This delicious dish is so flavorful with the addition of the horseradish and it is definitely worth the effort. The only changes I made was to scale back just a little bit on the prepared horseradish and I used panko bread crumbs as I didn't have fresh bread. Made for Spring PAC, April, 2014.
     
  4. Wow! Nobody made and reviewed this yet? This is fabulous! It's definitely for the horseradish lovers. My horseradish was pretty hot, but it was not overpowering. I found all the flavors to work well together. I made this just as written. I think it's a new favorite of mine. Thanx for sharing!
