Wasabi Powder - Japanese Horse Radish

Add a touch of authentic Japanese heat to your dishes with Wasabi Powder. This green powder delivers a potent burst of heat with a distinct sinus-clearing effect. Traditionally used with sushi and sashimi, Wasabi powder can also be incorporated into sauces, dressings, or marinades for a unique flavor kick. Caution: Start slow due to the strong heat.

Wasabi is primarily used as a condiment to accompany sushi with shaved ginger and is potent and cleanly spicy. The flavor of wasabi is similar to that of horseradish in that it cools faster than spices that derive their heat from oils that linger on longer. Wasabi also differs in its heat and effects in that it is primarily felt in the nasal passages.
