Optional Ingredients to Take it to the Next Level

For added depth and complexity, consider incorporating these optional ingredients:

  • 1/2 teaspoon of horseradish for an extra kick
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon for a touch of brightness
  • Pinch of ground black pepper for added warmth
  • Salt to taste for balance
