At Real Wasabi, we take pride in sourcing the highest quality wasabi plants, ensuring an authentic and unforgettable taste experience for our guests. Our commitment to quality begins with the careful cultivation and harvesting of these remarkable plants.
Growing Conditions for Wasabi Plants
Wasabi plants require specific growing conditions to thrive. They prefer a shady environment, ideally with a temperature range between 8°C and 20°C. The rich, fertile soil of shaded mountainsides provides the perfect medium for cultivation.
These plants require constant moist conditions, often found in regions with abundant rainfall. The cultivation process is meticulous and demanding, as it mimics the natural conditions of the plant's native habitat. Our team of skilled farmers dedicates themselves to maintaining these ideal growing conditions to ensure the highest quality wasabi plants for your dining pleasure.
The Intricate Process of Harvesting
Harvesting wasabi plants is an art in itself, requiring precision and attention to detail. The plants develop rhizomes, which are the underground stems responsible for the distinct flavor we associate with wasabi.
When the plants reach maturity, usually after two years of careful cultivation, the time has come to harvest the bountiful rhizomes. Our experienced farmers delicately remove the plants from the soil, ensuring minimal damage to the precious rhizomes.
Preparation of Authentic Wasabi
Real Wasabi takes great care in preparing and serving authentic wasabi. Unlike many restaurants that use substitutes or artificial pastes, we pride ourselves on offering the real deal.
Our talented chefs skillfully grind fresh wasabi rhizomes using traditional sharkskin graters, a process that releases the distinct, complex flavors and aromas. The result is a vibrant green paste with a subtly spicy kick and a hint of sweetness.
The Delightful Culinary Experience
When dining at Real Wasabi, you can immerse yourself in an extraordinary culinary journey. Our team of expert chefs pairs the exceptional flavor of authentic wasabi with the finest cuts of fish and other carefully selected ingredients.
