grating horseradish?
 

Since I like fresh horseradish, I grabbed a piece of root at the market
the other day. Grating it turned out to be kind of a problem in my
low-tech kitchen. My cheap little Moulis grater didn't work nor did my
4-in-1 or cheese grater. I ended up using my old Universal grinder
which did OK but is impractical for small amounts. I don't own a
Cuisinart or Robot Coupe nor do I want to. Anybody have any low
tech/budget ideas?
TIA

I wouldn't be without mine and it's my favourite gift for friends this
Christmas.

By "4-in-1" do you mean a regular four-sided box grater? I've used one of
those to grate horseradish plenty of times with no problem. I use the
coarse side.

Yup, for small amounts they are the ticket.

You can get a small food processer/chpper for less than $15.00.
I bought one at wal-mart for $9.99. The chamber is only about 6" across
and it does a nice job fine-mincing fresh ginger root for me. I see no
reason it'd not work on horse radish! Just slice it before putting it in
there.

HTH???
