Celebrating the Authenticity of Wasabia japonica

Most "wasabi" sadly isn't authentic - and most wasabi products contain no wasabi whatsoever. Unlike “faux wasabi,” made from horseradish, mustard, and food coloring that assaults the sinuses when eaten, Real Wasabi™ is heralded by chefs worldwide for its unique, agreeable, short-lived heat and nuanced sweet aftertaste. We refer to its memorable flavor as Fiery Taste, Smooth Finish™.
