We’re sharing one more recipe today to make your Perfect Prime Rib dinner even more delicious – a fantastic Creamy Horseradish Sauce to serve along with it!
In my opinion, the zesty flavor of horseradish is a perfect complement to any steak or roast beef dish. This Creamy Horseradish Sauce is cool and creamy with a gentle heat, and spooned on top of a slice of prime rib – it helps balance and enhance the richness of the meat.
This Creamy Horseradish Sauce is very easy to make – just mix all of the ingredients in a bowl. But it’s best served chilled so be sure to prepare this sauce in advance – while your prime rib cooks – and refrigerate it until ready to serve.

Notes
The amount of horseradish is up to you. Personally, I like to use a lot more than our recipe calls for, but that is just my personal preference. Start with the amount listed then keep adding more until it meets your tastes. Just make sure to squeeze out the liquid before adding.

How long does it last in the refrigerator
Hi Kathy – with fresh dairy, the sauce will be good for about a week in the refrigerator.
Awesome recipe!!!!

Thanks Leah!
Your recipe calls for 1 cup of prepared horseradish . Is this correct ? That seems like a lot of horseradish!
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!
WOW! This is an outstanding recipe! A perfect accompaniment to beef!
Thanks Lynn!
Too sour! Too much lemon juice!
Thanks for your feedback Lorraine. (Did you happen to use bottled lemon juice – which is MUCH more sour than fresh?)

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
