Silver Spring Foods, a subsidiary of Huntsinger Farms, the world’s largest grower and processor of horseradish is kicking off July, National Horseradish Month, with a celebration for the king of condiments.
With online and retail sales of Silver Spring Foods horseradish products exploding in recent months, up 123% and 12.5% respectively, the company is racing to meet demand. The company recently increased its horseradish supply by over 1 million pounds to fill retail and food service orders.
“Horseradish is the perfect condiment for any meat or meat substitute, and a great ingredient for dips, salad dressings, and marinades - a little goes a long way,” says Eric Rygg, President of Silver Spring Foods. “For too long horseradish has been the unsung hero of the condiment shelf. With the nation staying home for the last almost four months, we’ve seen a big surge in interest in our products as people have been looking for new ways to bring flavor to their home cooking. Today, more and more people across the country are recognizing horseradish as the king of condiments that it is.”
Silver Spring Foods has a full line of prepared horseradish and mustard products that enhance flavors for any food. The beauty of it all? The condiment does so while adding very few calories and is gluten-free. “We truly have a sauce, a mustard, or a horseradish product for everyone,” added Rygg.
Silver Spring Foods products include Applewood Smoke Flavored Horseradish, Sriracha Sauce, Beer 'n Brat Mustard, Sassy Horseradish Sauce, and more (see the full line of products here).
Bring the Heat to Your Summer BBQ With These Recipes
- To add some zing to your summer mixed grill, marinate your salmon fillet for at least 30 minutes with just 1 tablespoon of horseradish, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon crushed garlic, and salt and pepper to your heat preference. Grill 3-5 minutes per side, remove from the grill and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Use the same marinade with beef, chicken, shrimp, pork, and lamb. More marinades and dressings here.
- Adding this dip recipe to any veggie plate is sure to turn up the heat. Combine 1 pint of sour cream, 1 teaspoon of Silver Spring Dijon mustard, ½ cup of Silver Spring Prepared Horseradish, 2 teaspoons of chopped chives and salt and pepper taste. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to use. More dips and spreads here.
- This dip is perfect for summer and can be whipped up in just minutes. In a food processor, add 2 (8oz) blocks of softened cream cheese, 2 (8oz) cans pineapple tidbits, in its juice, and 1/2 jar of Silver Spring Cream Style Horseradish. Blend ingredients until combined. Serve with your choice of plain flavored cracker. Enjoy! If you don't have a food processor, a blender could work. If you don't have either, mix together the pineapple and horseradish and then mix in the softened cream cheese.
