How much would is cost to buy one wasabi root? I heard it's expensive in North America...and I mean the REAL stuff, not fake powder or anything...a real wasabi root.
Answer:
I buy it in Toronto at Sanko on Queens St, just west of Bathurst, 4 blocks, it is a small root, looks like a small black carrot with a green tinge to it, a ceramic grater is best, or even a home box grater.
You peel the amount you want, and grate it, then add it to vinegar or just use it plain, but a word of caution, it does not hit you like the powdered variety, it is an all over "WHAM". To store it, wrap it in a piece of paper towel, then store in in a ziplok bag.
Either in the crisper or on the door in a cool but dry spot, it runs in price about $9-12.00 lb, but the pieces are no more than 2-4 oz, so you would be looking at $3-6.00 a piece depending on the size
Almost all sushi bars in America, and most in Japan, serve imitation (seiyō) wasabi (see Etymology section, below) because the real product is relatively more expensive. True wasabi is made from the wasabi plant but imitation wasabi is made from horseradish, mustard seed, and green food coloring (sometimes Spirulina), often as a powder to be mixed with water to make a paste. Since real wasabi loses its flavor if dried, its presence as an ingredient in some powders is of questionable value. To distinguish between the true variety of wasabi and the imitation product, real wasabi is known in Japan as hon-wasabi (本山葵), meaning original, or true wasabi.
How To Grate Wasabi.
Rinse the rhizome under cold running water.
Scrape off any bumps or rough areas along the sides.
Scrub the rhizome with a stiff brush.
Cut the rhizome just below the leaf base and inspect the exposed flesh to ensure that it is a uniform green colour.
Grate the cut end against the grater surface, using a circular motion.
After use, rinse the rhizome under cold running water. If you are using a sharkskin grater, rinse it under cold running water as well and let it air dry.
