YOU WILL RECIEVE EITHER A WHOLE ROOT OR SEVERAL PIECES OF FRESH ROOT WHICH EVER ADDS UP TO THE WEIGHT AMOUNT YOU PURCHASED. HORSERADISH ROOT IS VERY LARGE AND IS CUT TO WEIGHT AMOUNTS , WE CANNOT PROMISE OR GAURANTEE WHICH PARTS OF ROOT IS RECIEVED. The intact horseradish root has hardly any aroma. When cut or grated, however, enzymes from the now-broken plant cells break down sinigrin (a glucosinolate) to produce allyl isothiocyanate (mustard oil), which irritates the mucous membranes of the sinuses and eyes. Grated mash should be used immediately or preserved in vinegar for best flavor. Once exposed to air or heat it will begin to lose its pungency, darken in color, and become unpleasantly bitter tasting over time. Freshly grated horseradish emits fumes that can make your nose run and irritate your eyes, so prepare it in a well-ventilated area or even outside if your eyes are extremely sensitive. Wrap in a damp paper towel to store, place in a plastic bag and refrigerate. We recommend you use it within 2-4 days. Horseradish will loose potency over time and become overly soft.
