Horseradish-Dill Sauce

Horseradish cream is a classic pairing with beef. In this version, fresh dill contributes some sassy flavor while a hard-cooked egg adds richness and texture. Save any leftovers for roast beef sandwiches.



  • 5 whole scallions, sliced




  • 1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh dill




  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil




  • 1/4 cup prepared horseradish, drained




  • 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce; more as needed




  • 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice; more as needed




  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper




  • 1 cup sour cream or crème fraîche




  • 1 hard-cooked large egg, finely chopped




Pulse the scallions and dill in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the olive oil, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper and pulse until just blended.


Transfer to a bowl, stir in the sour cream, and then fold in the egg. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld. Season to taste with more salt, pepper, lemon juice, or Worcestershire.
