Default Horseradish leaves

Id love to have some horseradish growing in our allotment. I really enjoy
it. However, the comment about eyes running when grating it, etc. is
completely true - I read somewhere of someone who unwisely used a
liquidiser to mince it up, and suffered the consequences along with a
kitchen that could not be entered for an hour or so without face and eye
masks on.


Last harvest of horseradish I had, I cleaned the roots and broke them
up into 6 inch pieces which I then stored in re-sealable bags in a
deep freeze.

When I wanted some prepared, I took out a few roots and put them in a
processor once they were partly thawed. No streaming eyes, no
assaulted nose, no problemmo.
