Prepared horseradish
Selected reference.
Raw root
Use a raw-root record.
Creamy sauce
Use the exact product label.
Mixed condiment
Log the complete recipe.
PRACTICAL CONTEXT

Fibre check
The selected record lists 3.3 g fibre per 100 g.
Protein check
The selected record lists 1.18 g protein per 100 g.
Best logging move
Measure the prepared condiment and use the label when ingredients differ.
QUALITY & SAFETY

PHOTO LOGGING
How to log prepared horseradish more accurately
A food photo can suggest the ingredient, but it cannot always reveal exact weight, hidden oil or preparation details. These checks turn an image guess into a better estimate.
- 01
Match the exact reference state: Horseradish, prepared.
- 02
Use edible grams. Calories are scaled from the selected per-100-g record; named portion weights come from the same local USDA record, while explicitly labelled gram examples are calculated.
- 03
Log oil, sauce, sweetener, salt and recipe ingredients separately.
- 04
Use a separate record when preparation changes the food state.
