Based on our most popular gift pack, the Pro & Grow, we have added jars of our award-winning Wasabi Mustard and Wasabi Mayonnaise to give you the option to add your favourite wasabi flavour to even more dishes.
From salmon to beef, potatoes to cheese, marinades, dressings and sauces, with the Fresh Wasabi Pro & Grow Plus you've got it all covered! While your new plant is sending out roots and preparing to grow over the coming months, you have the chance to harvest leaves and flowers before all your patience and care pays off with the harvest of the precious rhizome.
Fresh wasabi is classically paired with sushi and sashimi. Versatile in the extreme fresh wasabi can also flavour dressings, butter, sauces, ceviches, gravadlax, sorbets, foams and freshly grated will accompany meat or fish. Please note: on occasion Japanese wasabi will be substituted if English wasabi is between harvest
A wasabi grater is essential for breaking wasabi down at the cellular level to bring together compounds that are held in different parts of the cell. The enzyme reaction that results is responsible for both flavour and pungency, this will peak after 5-7 mins, hold for 15 mins then slowly reduce. For this reason, wasabi is served at the table and grated little and often. A wasabi grater brush will help you mix the wasabi and gather all of the valuable paste from the grater.
The memory of the first taste of fresh wasabi stays forever making this a truly original gift for the foodie in your life.
Fresh wasabi stores well in the fridge for 14 days, see more details here
