Good! I followed the recipe and thought horseradish was a little overpowering probably 'cause I left out celery and parsley (didn't have any). Added 2 more Tbs. of catsup and that balanced the flavors nicely and sauce was delicious. I did add some hot sauce as we like spicy foods. A nice change from cocktail sauce for seafood!

A very nice sauce! I love that I was able to make this with staples that I already had on hand. I just made the sauce, not the shrimp, as I needed a remoulade for some fried oysters. This certainly fit the bill. Tangy, and bit of heat, but not overpowering. Very easy to make, I used my mini food processor and it came together in seconds. Made for ZWT5 by one of the Cooks with Dirty Faces.

Excellent recipe! I love this remoulade sauce recipe because the flavors are very balanced. The right amount of heat and bite! Whew! What a great contrast to plain chilled shrimp. I use this recipe for get togethers and it's amazing how fast it's consumed. I live the horseradish; it has a nice bite. Overall, you can't beat this recipe.
