99 of the Japanese restaurants or restaurants serving sushi (including ours) will never serve you real wasabi. Why? Because its very expensive and most of us dont even know that it exists. \rbr\rbrWasabi plants are found along shaded mountainous terrain where running water is. Nowadays, there are places that grow wasabi that are outside Japan; youtube wasabi plant to watch some great videos. \rbr\rbrTo enjoy fresh wasabi, look for a shark skin grater or if not, a micro grater will also work. Shave the outside of the skin to reveal the stem, and then with a circular motion, apply some pressure until a paste forms. This is your fresh ground wasabi thats potent for about 20 minutes. If youve never had it, and more than likely you havent, youll need to search deep and wide for an authentic Japanese restaurant that will serve this to you. But be forewarned: once you go real wasabi, you wont go back to the powdered one thats mostly all horseradish powder that just needs water to form the paste were all familiar with.\rbr\rbrFollow Hiroyuki Terada:\rbrFacebook: \rbrInstagram: \rbrTwitter: \rbr\rbrHiros Second Channel: \rbr \rbr\rbrCamera Mans Channel: \rbr\rbr\rbr\rbrWatch More Hiroyuki Terada:\rbrRecent Uploads: \rbrPopular Videos: \rbrExtreme Series: \rbrLow Difficulty Recipes: \rbr\rbr\rbrSupport our Patreon page to see exclusive content not seen on YouTube, videos that will make you a better sushi chef, and recipes that will dazzle your tastebuds.Master Sushi Chef Hiroyuki Terada shares his utmost intimate knowledge with you. \rbr \rbr\rbrAs always, we wish to thank all of our fans for spending time here with us on YouTube.
