Wasabi
French action comedy
Wasabi is a Japanese plant whose root is grated into a pungent green paste served with sushi and sashimi.
The sharp, sinus-clearing heat dissipates quickly, unlike the lingering burn of chili peppers.
True wasabi is expensive and difficult to cultivate, so most wasabi served outside Japan—and much within it—is actually horseradish dyed green.
I asked for extra wasabi with my spicy tuna roll.
