Wasabi is Japan's version of horseradish. However, the taste differs. The wasabi root (stem) is familiarly used in grated form for Sushi, but can also be used to flavor ice cream and sweets.

It is not only the rhizome that can be used, but also the leaves, which are suitable for use with seafood, fish and salads. The whole plant is edible.
