This is an unusual dish with many layers of flavours. The creamy dressing makes it elegant, the walnuts give it another dimension of texture and earthy flavour, and the horseradish is so faint, it just blends in. Because of the orange juice, this can't be served with every meal...it went well with our schnitzel tonight. Even better the next day, too!

A Canadian citizen, I really have no permanant home as of now. Raised by missionary parents and now on a missions program with my husband, I've been all over Europe, though not to every country, yet!
Its been fun figuring out what I can do with the native groceries...once I've figured out what they all are:) Fortunately they don't differ too much throughout Europe.

Hubby in Troyes, Fr..an enchanting town!
I am fascinated by each culture's food traditions. I always thought I was half-way brave when it came to trying out different dishes until I saw an old "Bizarre Foods - Phillippines". Wow.
I haven't posted many recipes because I realised I don't measure out everything the same way each time and so don't have many recipes that are precise enough to post. I sure enjoy trying all yours!

I've been able to find EVERYthing I need here on Zaar. Where I live now, I can hardly get anything, so I have to make everything from scratch. (I mean non-essentials like pancake syrup, guacamole, papier mache glue, bbq sauce, etc)
