Fish Salad With Horseradish Sauce
(Fiskesalat Med Pepperrotsaus)
|
|

This salad makes excellent use of leftover boiled fish, but if you intend to use fresh, uncooked fish, prepare it according to the directions for boiled cod.
|
| What You Need: |
|
|
|
2 pounds cold boiled halibut or cod fillet
4 tablespoons freshly grated horseradish root or 4 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 pint sour cream
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon white vinegar
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
1 medium head lettuce, preferably Boston
2 hard-cooked eggs, sliced
3 tomatoes, peeled and cut in wedges

| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. If you are using bottled, prepared horseradish, drain it through a fine sieve, pressing out the excess juice with a wooden spoon, or squeeze the horseradish dry in a kitchen towel or double thickness of cheesecloth.
|
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the horseradish, sour cream, salt, pepper, onions, vinegar and 2 tablespoons of the chopped dill.
|
3. Break the fish into 2-inch chunks and carefully fold it into the sour-cream dressing with a rubber spatula.
|
4. Marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator, then arrange the fish, sauce and all, on a bed of dried, chilled lettuce leaves.
|
5. Garnish with the sliced eggs and tomato wedges, and, just before serving, strew the remaining tablespoon of chopped dill over the salad.
