Peter,
Thanks so much for that horseradish site. I grew up on horseradish, and
while reading your e-mail, it suddenly dawned on me: that's maybe what
got me into loving hot and spicy food? Basically, horseradish (and
garlic) might be responsible for me becoming a chili-head? Back in the
Valais in Switzerland, where I grew up, you can literally not buy
chillies. But you certainly can get your share of horseradish, and I did.
Interesting topic. And yes, a lot of mustard recipes call for vinegar. I
make herbal mustards with mustard powder. If I have a chance, I'll type
and post some recipes.
Best regards,
Eruna
