In November I was in Toronto and had a smoked salmon sandwich on a bagel at the restaurant Schmaltz Appetizing, 414 Dupont St., and they had horseradish on it, so when I saw this recipe from Martha Stewart I had to try it. I was not disappointed! I had to run out to buy bagel chips but it was worth it!
