This Japanese version of horseradish is from the wasabi root, which is indigenous to Japan. Wasabi is used to make a green-colored condiment that has a sharp, pungent, fiery flavor. The powdered form (light gray color) changes to a bright green paste when mixed with water. Fresh wasabi, available in some specialty markets, can be grated like horseradish. Wasabi is traditionally used to garnish sushi and soba noodle dishes.
