The message
from "Franz Heymann" contains
these words:

I don't think we will eat enough horseradish in all of our
remaining
years to warrant anything like it.
We'll just have to go on buying it at the grocer. {:-))

Have you tried it as a root vegetable?

No.
How do you prepare it?
What does it taste like?
Does the preparation get rid of the bite?
Does it have any after effects?

Whilst googling for something else a couple of weeks ago I saw
Horseradish was on a list of poisonous plants.

Is horseradish the same as "radi" radish sold in Bavarian beer halls
and festivals in spirals? If so the application of salt removes the
bite.
