My parents are heading back to Taiwan tonight. So for our last dinner together, Cliff made sushi and he insisted on getting real wasabi to go with it. This is what a real wasabi plant looks like. The little piece of root needed to be scrubbed, washed and grated. The flavor is nothing like the fake wasabi made from powder. The real stuff is fragrant, flavorful, but not annoyingly spicy.
