My first time making horseradish.

Peeled and chopped some roots, threw it in the food processor, all looks
well.

Take a whif to see how it smells... holy bajeezus!! My nose and throat, and
even my lungs had a good burn. I guess fresh is strong stuff ;-) Tears
rolling down my face for a bit there.

I set some aside in a jar to use (burgers today, fish tomorrow) and I am
canning a couple more jars for friends.

Tastey stuff.

Next time set up a small fan to blow across your work space. That's
what I did after doing exactly what you did my first time. I add a
bit of vinegar and freeze the slush in old baby food jars.

Reminds me to dig up some fresh roots from the garden now that the
ground has thawed. (Once you have horseradish in your garden, you
will always have horseradish in your garden, which is a good thing or
a bad thing depending on how much you like horseradish.)
