    I am new to horseradish in my garden! And I have been negligent in learning about what to do with it! Will fresh horseradish freeze well and has anyone made a batch of sauce of anykind using fresh HR and frozen that? If so what results or advice about trying it!

    I love horseradish.  Go to Preserving your harvest com   There are many ways to store and if you keep in sand you can keep it fresh all winter.

    Thanks so much for the information. I harvested about 3 cups and have washed and cleaned and peeled it. I ground it in a Cuisinart and added salt and vinegar, and indeed it made a potent mix! At your suggestion I am going to vacuum pack half of it and use the other half for a sauce for the tenderloin I smoke at Christmas.

    It is one of the main ingredients in worcestershire sauce. Once you try homemade, the bottled stuff just won't cut it. It can be canned and kept in the pantry.
