Achieve that deep, bold, classic steakhouse flavor instantly with this foolproof, creamy horseradish sauce. Ready in just 5 minutes, this tangy beef topping elevates roast beef, steak, or prime rib.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup prepared horseradish (drained if very wet)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Gather all your ingredients. You need just a few simple items for this restaurant style horseradish sauce.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream and mayonnaise. Stir until the mixture is smooth.
  3. Add the prepared horseradish, Dijon mustard, and fresh lemon juice to the bowl. Mix well to incorporate everything evenly.
  4. Season the sauce with salt and black pepper. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning as needed. If you want more heat, add a touch more horseradish.
  5. For the best flavor, cover the creamy horseradish sauce and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld.
  6. Serve this tangy beef sauce alongside your prime rib, roast beef, or steak.

Notes

  • If you prefer a milder flavor, use less horseradish. For a stronger kick, use fresh horseradish instead of jarred, adjusting the amount to your preference.
  • This recipe is very close to the flavor profile you find in high-end steakhouses.
  • You can substitute half of the sour cream with heavy cream for a lighter texture, though the classic version uses full sour cream for richness.
  • This easy homemade horseradish sauce keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
