Ingredients
Scale
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup prepared horseradish, drained well
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
Combine the heavy cream, drained prepared horseradish, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard in a medium bowl.
Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Season with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving with prime rib.
Notes
For a thicker sauce, you can substitute sour cream for half of the heavy cream.
Always drain the prepared horseradish thoroughly to prevent a watery sauce.
This sauce benefits from chilling; make it a day ahead for the best flavor.
If you prefer a sharper bite, use fresh, freshly grated horseradish instead of prepared.
