Wasabi - Horseradish Spice
Wasabi is a special seasoning unique to Japanese cuisine. The wasabi root is peeled and grated in order to season many different dishes. Wasabi is difficult to buy in fresh form and is expensive so it is most often used as a paste or powder. It should be used as a condiment for sushi, sashimi, and Chilled Soba Noodles. It has an intensely hot flavour and so should be used sparingly.
