Chrain

On the seder table and beside Shabbat gefilte fish, Ashkenazi families in Israel set out a bowl of chrain, a magenta relish of freshly grated horseradish and cooked beetroot. Its heat goes straight up the nose and clears the head, softened by the earthy sweetness of beet, a pinch of sugar and sharp vinegar. It keeps for weeks in the fridge and also livens up roast vegetables, boiled potatoes and egg salad. The common mistake is grating horseradish in a closed room with your face over the bowl: its fumes sting the eyes badly. Chef's tip: add the vinegar straight after grating, it fixes the heat at its peak; the longer grated horseradish sits without acid, the milder and more bitter it becomes.

Ćwikła z chrzanem

Easter baskets blessed in Polish churches on Holy Saturday always hold a little horseradish, and on Sunday morning it reappears mixed with beetroot as ćwikła, the bright purple relish passed around with eggs, white sausage, ham and rye bread. Here it is meat-free; spoon it beside eggs, cheese or roast vegetables. It is sweet, sour and sharp enough to clear your nose, and the heat fades over a few days in the fridge. A common mistake is using jarred horseradish cream, which makes it milky and mild; use freshly grated root or plain grated horseradish in vinegar. Chef's tip: grate the horseradish near an open window, or in a food processor, and add it last so its heat stays lively.

Tafelspitz

Tafelspitz is Vienna's grand Sunday lunch, the dish the old Beisl taverns and the city's famous beef restaurants built their names on. A whole piece of beef top rump is barely simmered with root vegetables for hours, then served in three acts: first the clear golden broth, then the sliced beef with crisp roast potatoes, sharp Apfelkren (grated apple and horseradish) and a cool chive sauce. Keep any leftover broth for Grießnockerlsuppe or Frittatensuppe. Chef's tip: never let the pot bubble; a slow tremble keeps the meat juicy and the broth clear.

Steirisches Wurzelfleisch

Wurzelfleisch, 'root meat', is a winter dish from the farms of Styria in south-east Austria, cooked in November and December when pigs were killed and the cellar was full of carrots, celeriac and parsley root. Pork shoulder is simmered in a lightly sour broth, then served in deep plates with thin strips of root vegetables, boiled potatoes and a snowfall of freshly grated horseradish. It is a gentle, clean-tasting dish, quite unlike a roast. Chef's tip: grate the horseradish at the table; it loses its bite within minutes.
