Make this zesty, creamy horseradish sauce quickly. This simple recipe delivers the bold, steakhouse flavor you want for prime rib, roast beef, or steak.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup prepared horseradish, drained well
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place the sour cream, prepared horseradish, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper into a medium bowl.
  2. Stir all ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  3. Taste the horseradish sauce and adjust salt or lemon juice if you want more tang.
  4. Cover the bowl and chill the creamy horseradish sauce in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to blend.
  5. Serve this bold topping with your prime rib or steak.

Notes

  • Drain the prepared horseradish thoroughly; excess liquid makes the sauce too thin.
  • For a sharper flavor, use freshly grated horseradish root instead of prepared horseradish.
  • This homemade steak sauce keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
