Real wasabi now available as oil

Wasabi is a famous traditional Japanese condiment. Now that it is in oil form, it is much easier to use in cooking.

"Wasabi Oil" from Fundodai can add the unique aroma, flavor, and spiciness of wasabi to your dishes. Wasabi is famous as a traditional Japanese condiment that is always served with soba noodles, sushi, and other dishes. Wasabi oil is a very easy-to-use seasoning that allows you to enjoy the taste of Japan.

 

The raw material is real wasabi.

Wasabi oil is made from real wasabi. Real wasabi is native to Japan, has a beautiful golden color, and when grated, it has a unique aroma, flavor, and spiciness. Unlike horseradish, which is native to Europe, it has a milder flavor and is a luxurious condiment.

 

Real wasabi grows in clean, clear streams, valleys, and rivers.

Real wasabi grows in environments with clean water. The annual water temperature is said to be between 9 and 16 degrees, making it a very delicate plant. Western horseradish grows in the soil, but real wasabi can only be cultivated in environments with clean water.

 

The oil used is rapeseed oil.

Real wasabi is extracted and mixed with rapeseed oil to create the oil. Rapeseed oil is mild, heat-resistant, and does not oxidize easily. By using rapeseed oil, the aroma, flavor, and spiciness of real wasabi are firmly wrapped up. The aroma of wasabi permeates the food, making it even more delicious.

 

We recommend the combination of sweet soy sauce and wasabi oil.

How about wasabi soy sauce, which combines soy sauce with wasabi oil? It is especially great when combined with sweet Kyushu soy sauce (sweet soy sauce). When eating steak, try dipping it in wasabi soy sauce. The slight sweetness and savory aroma of soy sauce, as well as the unique flavor and spiciness of wasabi, go perfectly together.

For sushi, sashimi, and roast beef!

It's also recommended as a secret ingredient in salads. It goes well with mayonnaise!

How about making a carpaccio sauce by combining clear soy sauce and wasabi oil?

We also recommend the combination of clear soy sauce and wasabi oil. If you use clear soy sauce with wasabi, the color of the carpaccio ingredients will come through. Serve with white fish, salmon roe, and lemon for a very stylish dish.
