Wasabi Powder

Wasabi Powder is a pale-green powdered spice most commonly used in Japanese cuisine to make the sharp, sinus-clearing condiment served with sushi and sashimi. It’s valued for its intense, volatile heat rather than bulk, so small amounts deliver a lot of flavor. As a powdered root product, Wasabi Powder provides a notable amount of fiber at 25g per 100g and is low in fat; it also contains pungent plant compounds related to glucosinolates that give it its characteristic heat. Used sparingly, it’s a flavorful way to add bite to dishes without many calories, and its plant compounds are associated with antimicrobial and antioxidant effects.
