Make the best, zesty, and creamy horseradish sauce for prime rib or roast beef. This quick, no-cook recipe delivers that bold, steakhouse flavor instantly.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup prepared horseradish, drained
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream and heavy cream. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Add the drained prepared horseradish, Dijon mustard, and white wine vinegar to the cream mixture.
  3. Stir well to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
  4. Season with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed for your preferred heat level.
  5. Cover the bowl and chill the sauce in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld.
  6. Serve this tangy roast beef condiment cold alongside prime rib, roast beef, or steak.

Notes

  • For a sharper, more sinus-clearing zing, use less heavy cream or substitute some of it with whole milk.
  • If you prefer a milder sauce, use less prepared horseradish or rinse the horseradish briefly under cold water before draining.
  • This sauce keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
