Pacific Coast Wasabi: Faster turnaround with a new approach to production
Lambrecht's growing methods are in stark contrast to Pacific Coast Wasabi, a Canadian company that is one of the leaders in wasabi production in the New World with greenhouses in British Columbia, Washington State, and Oregon.
Real Wasabi is marketing dried ground wasabi powder (with a wonderfully sweet edge), dressings and sauces from its brand new base in Hilton Head, South Carolina. Restaurants, especially sushi bars, can also order the fresh wasabi rhizome from the new firm. This is wasabi without the intense fire that often turns off Western palates. At the moment, their products are only available in Good Earth and Rainbow markets. To learn more or order online, contact the partners atwww.realwasabi.com.
Handmade solid cherry sushi getas paired with ironwood chopsticks and a small jar of Real Wasabi Powder, for example, makes a great gift for your favorite sushi friend
