Gather these ingredients:

- 1 cup finely grated raw beet (from about 1 medium)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- A smidgen of sugar
- 2 to 3 tablespoons white or cider vinegar
While there's no specific recipe from "The Jewish Festival Cookbook," we've crafted a friendly and feeble attempt at capturing its essence with our take on Beet Horseradish. Now, let's give that a whirl!
Beet Horseradish Featuring a Kick
When making beet horseradish, always remember to start with freshly grated horseradish root and cooked, peeled beets. Salt, sugar, and vinegar work as flavor enhancers that complement the natural sweetness of the beets.
Homemade Gefilte Fish: The Star of the Show
To prepare the star of our Passover feast, you'll need:
- 1 pound pike or carp fillet, or any firm white fish
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 carrot, finely chopped
- 1 celery stalk, finely chopped
- 1 egg
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Vegetable oil or fish broth for poaching
We've kept the process simple by creating a coarsely chopped mixture of fish, onion, carrot, celery, egg, salt, and pepper. Form the ground mixture into fish logs or balls, then poach them in a simmering water or fish broth until cooked through (approximately 20 minutes).
The Sweet-Spicy Pairing
Beet Chrein, featuring the sweetness of cooked beets and the spiciness of grated fresh horseradish, makes the perfect accompaniment to our homemade Gefilte Fish. To kick off your dish, serve a dollop of Beet Chrein on top of sliced, tender gefilte fish logs or place it alongside your hearty main course.
With Beet Horseradish and Homemade Gefilte Fish on the table, you're well on your way to a Passover celebration that's anything but dull. Enjoy!
