wasabi_tea Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 that poor man he never wins LOL! He has done a couple of times, actually - sometimes he seems to get bored of pretending to be a doofus and actually says something intelligent XD i dont see the point in being confrontational either...really whatever... whats the best brand of wasabi? i've heard that the one we have in europe is not the same they have in japan, apparently it's made with another plant, very similar one , but not the same:shocked: Wikipedia says: "Wasabi is generally sold either in the form of a root (real wasabi), which must be very finely grated before use, or as a ready-to-use paste (horseradish, mustard and food coloring), usually in tubes approximately the size and shape of travel toothpaste tubes... "Almost all sushi bars in America and Japan serve imitation (seiyō) wasabi because authentic wasabi is usually expensive, but it is becoming widely available even in the United States. Wasabi loses much of its flavor if exposed to air for even a short time, so genuine powdered wasabi, while it does exist, typically contains horseradish and other ingredients to approximate the nasal spiciness of fresh wasabi. Because of this, most powders use no real wasabi and instead turn to just horseradish, mustard seed, and green food coloring (sometimes Spirulina)." Doesn't mention Europe, but I think it pretty much explains any ingredient differences. So, the best wasabi would probably be made with some actual wasabi root, but Google failed me when I tried to look for some like that. Gourmet Britain says: "It's probably better to buy wasabi as a powder and mix it to a paste with water (in a similar style to English mustard) - it will keep its flavour much longer." That's all I know, I'm afraid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
