Ingredients

  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup horseradish (more to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons chives fresh; chopped fine
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice fresh
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together sour cream, prepared horseradish, chives, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  • In a separate medium-sized bowl, beat heavy cream with a handheld electric mixer until thickened, but not yet at stiff peaks.
  • Using a rubber spatula, fold the whipped cream in gently a third at a time. After each pass of the spatula, rotate the bowl and make another pass. Continue in this fashion until the cream is incorporated. Taste the mixture. If required, add additional horseradish to taste.
  • Refrigerate at least 2 hours for flavor to develop, and up to 12 hours before serving.

Notes

Make Ahead: assemble sauce as many as 12 hours in advance of serving. The sauce does benefit from this but may also be served immediately. 
Store Leftover Sauce in an airtight container in your refrigerator up to 6 to 8 days. Stir well before using.
To Freeze: move to a freezer-safe container and freeze up to 3 months. Allow to thaw under refrigeration overnight. Stir well before using.
