Horseradish, for use in ketchups and chutneys, or as a condiment and natural flavoring, is a perennial herb used in Egyptian cuisine since 1500 BC. In Europe, it has been used in dishes since the Middle Ages. The dried and ground root tissue of horseradish is used in seasonings. Horseradish belongs to the Brassicaceae family, known for its health-promoting phytochemicals and beneficial effects as anticancer agents, thanks to glucosinolates and their isothiocyanate derivatives and vitamins. It also contains coumarins, phenolic acids and ascorbic acid. A horseradish sauce is prepared by mixing cream and vinegar. It is usually eaten with roast beef, boiled eggs or cold chicken. Its leaves are used in sandwiches and salads. In the shade the leaves grow very large, in the sun less.
