Ingredients:

Sauce:

    *For mild (not spicy sauce) use only ½ cup of the creamy horseradish, ¾ cup for medium spiciness, and 1 cup for the spiciest version of this sauce.

    Served with smoked meat or grilled brats/sausages (about 4 – 8 OZ per person)
    You can purchase any kind of smoked deli meat that you can gently reheat in the oven or on a pan. You can also use a thick slice of ham or smoked ham from Easter. And finally, you can substitute smoked meat with a grilled brat or sausage (it works great with an Italian version even though it is not very Czech). Vegetarians can also use brats or Italian sausages from Beyond Meat, which doesn’t include real meat and is vegan.
