Horseradish - Plant of the Week

[ErikEst]

easy to grow, hard to get rid of it. just like the dandelion. if you leave a little piece of its root in the soil, it'll be growing again soon.

but i prefer horseradish paste over ketchup anytime. it has some medical properties just like the garlic, but without the smell.
besides, in our country we add horseradish root pieces to the pickled cucumbers along with the dill, garlic cloves and black currant leaves. makes those gherkins extra crunchy.

and you can use dried powdered burning horseradish as the tear gas also. same as mustard or black pepper seeds.
