Keep room well ventilated when processing horseradish.
When peeling and chunking the horseradish root - wear gloves and do not touch your eyes!
If you have kitchen goggles, wear them.
If you purchase a thick root, it may be necessary to use a hammer to force the knife through the root. When handling beets, gloves are also suggested.
