Sauce, raifort : combien de grammes dans une cuillère ?
Prepared horseradish sauce is a condiment made by grating horseradish root and preserving it in vinegar and salt, sometimes with cream or stabilizers. Its density of 1.136 g/ml reflects suspended ground root fibers and dissolved acids in a slightly viscous base. A tablespoon weighs approximately 16.8 g; a cup weighs approximately 269 g. Pours slowly, similar to mustard — the ground fiber makes it thicker than vinegar but thinner than a puréed paste. Measurement by weight is most reliable because the fiber-to-liquid ratio affects how densely a tablespoon fills. Used in cocktail sauce, beef accompaniments, and as a condiment for smoked fish.

Questions fréquentes
- How many grams is a tablespoon of prepared horseradish?
- At 1.136 g/ml, one tablespoon (14.79 ml) of prepared horseradish sauce weighs approximately 16.8 g — about 2 g more than a tablespoon of water. For cocktail sauce recipes that call for several tablespoons of horseradish, this difference is measurable and worth weighing in large batches.
- Does drained vs. undrained horseradish have different gram weights?
- Yes. Commercially sold prepared horseradish contains varying amounts of liquid vinegar. If you drain excess liquid before measuring, the remaining fibrous solid will be denser and more compact — potentially 1.20–1.30 g/ml depending on how thoroughly drained. The USDA value (1.136 g/ml) reflects the undrained, ready-to-use product as sold.
