Heat cooker over low heat; stir in flour to make a smooth paste. Add sieved liquid; stir continuously until the sauce is smooth and thickened about 5-7 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; whisk in sour cream and horseradish until well blended. Slice brisket. Serve sauce with brisket and vegetables. NOTE: I have made this dish many times without the horseradish sauce. It is very flavorful without the sauce and excellent served with a simple salad. VARIATION: Instead of making the horseradish sauce simply add the following to the cooker with the tomato paste: 1 t. oregano 1 t. thyme 1 t. basil 1/2 t. rosemary -OR- 1 T. Italian seasoning. You may also substitute 1 c. red wine (do not use cooking wine; use a nice table wine for this purpose) or beer for 1 c. of the beef broth. "
