In an electric food processor or blender, process horseradish root, vinegar, sugar and salt. Carefully remove the cover of the processor or blender, keeping your face away from the container. Cover and store the horseradish in the refrigerator.
Homemade horseradish is great! Use a powerful grinder ( I cracked my Kitchen Aid attachment so be careful ) Sit outside with a fan blowing the aroma away from you. Your eyes and nose will appreciate your care. Clean and grind horseradish, put in a sterile canning jar, add 1 tsp salt, fill with white vinegar to 1/2 inch of top, top wth clean flat and screw cap for canning. Process in boiling water bath for 20-30 minutes (?), remove from bath and let the jars cool to room temperature. Size of canning jar will determine processing time. Warning: be sure to do ALL the grinding with a good breeze (or fan) and outside! We learned the hard way, when we couldn't breathe inside the house. The larger the root, the easier the grinding. It's texture is similar to grinding up wood- so patience is required. We gave some of ours as gifts in small pretty jelly jars. Marvelous! You can't predict the heat factor till you're through. But yummy!
I guanantee he used an old fashioned box grater, then possibly minced with a chefs knife. If you want a finer texture, use a microplane. Try a small batch with that method. If too "runny" then place grated horseradish in a couple layers of cheesecloth and wring out as much moisture as possible. Nothing better than fresh horseradish! I use it for allergies and colds. Plus I just love the sharp bite! To this day (and I cook everyday for myself and 9 pets), I still do not own a food processor . . .
Grandpa did not have "power tools" to make his horseradish... so he would have done it "low tech"... have fun... and plug your nose..LOL
