I don't. I once bought some Wasabi almonds. That was enough for me.

In moderation. A taste here and there....with sushi, of course.

Have you tried the mayonnaise with wasabi? I love it.

Yes. Had it today, actually. It was sort of a splurge day...not on the meal plan, but I love the stuff.

Never heard of it. I just checked the grocery store online site and they don't carry it. I like the mayo with olive oil.

If you don't like wasabi, stick to the regular mayo you like. Btw the one made out olive oil is relatively healthier. If you have a blender you can make your own with eggs and olive oil too, give it a try.

Yes, I have 4 fresh wasabi roots in my refrigerator right now....they come from a hydroponic farm in Oregon. Grated fresh wasabi is absolutely *nothing* like the powder/reconstituted type. Goes with sushi/sashimi of course. Also excellent with A5 Wagyu, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, etc.

 

The finer you grate it the hotter it gets.

Restaurants occasionally serve wasabi mayonnaise.

Wasabi with egg, yes!! Boiled eggs, Wasabi deviled eggs. I love the stuff. I have always tolerated sushi, but was never wild about them, but recently, I have a new attitude about them. Where else can you find combinations of flavors like that combined with the stunning visual presentation?

When sushi first started becoming popular in SF in the 80's I recall being in a restaurant and glancing over at the next table. An obvious newbie took the entire ball of wasabi and popped it into his mouth. A couple seconds later he nearly went into convulsions.

Fresh wasabi is amazing. It has sweetness and real complexity of flavor. The pasty green stuff at lower end sushi places is usually reconstituted colored horseradish/mustard powder.

Chinese hot mustard works well for that

I love wasabi. I haven’t tried wasabi almonds as one posted but I do enjoy wasabi peas.

You will love the almonds!

I’ll have to pick some up and give it a try. Thanks.

Japanese mayonnaise in general is better then ours. I love wasabi salt on fries.

No doubt. When it comes to food most things are better than national products

My friend almost put the whole thing in her mouth thinking it was avocado paste.

Yessssssss

[BasketBaller]

I love wasabi, but then I love horseradish in general. When I was growing up, if we had roast beef or lamb for dinner, my mom had horseradish on the table.

I like horseradish too. Sometimes I'll mix it with another condiment like mayo or mustard.
