    1. Hi Paul – One reader described this sauce as “sinus clearing – but in a good way” in the comments. 🙂 Feel free to start with less and add more to suit your tastes!

    1. Hi Robert – For four people, we’d suggest cutting the recipe in half (which makes 1 cup). Here are the ingredients:

      1/2 cup well-drained prepared horseradish
      1/4 cup sour cream
      1/4 cup mayonnaise
      1 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
      1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
      1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
      1 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
      1 drop Tabasco sauce
