| This is my favorite wasabi for making sushi. It's also great to use in the soy sauce when eating sushi as well. No hassles, no mess and convenient. |
Wasaaaabiiiii!

First thing to know about this product is that it isn't actually wasabi. Actual wasabi, known as hon-wasabi, comes from that lovely sinus-clearing wasabi plant, and should be grated right from the root much like ginger. It can be found in tube form as well, but that is much rarer.
This little squeeze-tube, like the powder stuff, is just regular horseradish, mustard seed and some food coloring. It contains 0% of the actual wasabi plant, and the flavor is different from hon-wasabi, although similar.
But it still works. For most recipes, using the expensive hon-wasabi would be a waste of money, and this imitation does the job just fine. I personally keep both kinds, hon-wasabi for when I am using it directly for sashimi and a tube of the old faithful S&B for when I want to make wasabi-flavored dishes.
It is too bad that it is so expensive, because this tube would go for about a dollar a pop in Japan, but that is the price of imports eh?
