Description Fine Print
 
The wasabi served in Japanese restaurants is not wasabi at all. It is made of horseradish, mustard, and green food colouring. Wasabia japonica is the real deal and is a very different culinary experience with a sweet heat and intensity that is more subtle and delicate than the fake stuff which can overpower you. 'Daruma' is a popular and vigorous variety with excellent green colour, size, and crisp flavour. After grating, allow to sit for a few minutes before eating for flavours to develop. Grow in moist to wet soils.
