What is Wasabi?
Wasabi is a typical Japanese spice mix derived from the root of the Eutrema japonicum plant. This plant, which belongs to the crucifer family, is often called "Japanese horseradish" and offers a distinctive sharp taste. In Japan, wasabi is also referred to as "Namida," meaning "tear," because the spice often brings tears to your eyes when consumed due to its pungency.
Real Wasabi and Its Origin
Real wasabi is rare and expensive due to the limited growing conditions. The rhizome of the plant is only fresh for a few days, which is why wasabi is often offered in powder form. Our wasabi powder comes from Japan and is made from high-quality rhizomes known for their unique flavor.
Wasabi Powder and Other Wasabi Variants
There are many types of wasabi powder, with the quality varying significantly. To preserve the authentic taste, the powder is preserved with mustard flour and natural antioxidants like E300. The green color is typical of wasabi and is achieved with natural coloring agents.
Culinary Uses of Wasabi Powder
Wasabi powder is often used to prepare an aromatic wasabi paste. Simply mix the powder with water or soy sauce to make a paste that pairs perfectly with sushi, sashimi, and other raw fish dishes.
