  • Let's travel to a valley in the Japanese alps in Nagano to get some organically grown wasabi from the farm! Just how is wasabi grown?
    Daio Wasabi Farm is one of Japan's largest and is a great place to find out - and try wasabi cuisine!
    There are few produce directly associated with Japan.
    Wasabi is one of the most widely known and the flavor is found more and more in snacks because of it's spicy kick.
    It's also used in sushi, mixed in the soy sauce.
    There is a big different between the processed wasabi found in some restaurants and the fresh kind which is traditionally ground on a shark skin grater and collected. The color and smell. The texture and taste.
    Why does fresh wasabi cost so much?
    It takes between 12 to 18 month to grow one and there is no telling what size it will be when pulled from the ground.
    The wasabi needs to be in the shade and have constant fresh water. The minerals from the melted snows of the Japanese alps surrounding Daio Wasabi Farm are perfect to make the worlds most delicious wasabi.
    What else can you do at the wasabi farm?
    You can hike around the beautiful area and also grab a bite to eat in the food plaza. They have:
    Wasabi beer
    Wasabi ice cream
    Wasabi burger
    Wasabi don
    Wasabi juice
    Wasabi wine
    Wasabi leaf salad
    Wasabi croquet
    and yes ... just plain wasabi!
    This is wasabi heaven!

    Where does real wasabi come from? John travels to the Japanese Alps to a valley in Nagano where the largest farm is located. Let's try some wasabi beer, wasabi ice cream, wasabi burger, wasabi juice ... it's all here! What makes wasabi so spicy? Are there any health benefits? We'll find out! 日本語字幕も付きました!

    I love fresh wasabi, I remember the first time I had it and was surprised to find that it's really not spicy at all like the processed kind. Shizuoka also makes great wasabi and I am thinking of doing a video on that region. Thanks so much for this video as I had no idea that Nagano makes wasabi.

    I bought a little wasabi plant in a pot from Borough market a number of years ago. Over the years I have repotted it and now it's a big strong winter plant. Every summer it fades and gets eaten by caterpillars or, most probably, slugs but as the temperature drops towards winter it grows back better than ever. I've not eaten from it yet, or tried to propagate it.....but I will 😊

    1. Talking loud
    2. Cringy Moments
    3. Forced Laughter
    4. Unknowingly degrading their own dignity.

    At first my mom was not really like wasabi, she thought it's spicy and shocking when eating. But now she gets used to it and totally loves it. We always have some little packs of wasabi paste in the fridge. And my mom always eats seafood with it as a dipping sauce. I can eat wasabi but not really into them. I think it's a spice that you hate at first and hesitate to try but when you get used to, you'll totally love it

    There are several kinds of wasabi in Japan.
    In the video, wasabi plants are growing in the shallow pure water river.
    They are good quality but very expensive and keeping freshness is difficult after grating.
    This type wasabi is usually used at expensive Sushi shop or fine dining.
    I always use powder type wasabi because it is easy to use at home.
    It is very cheap and reserving is easy.
    After mixing the small quantity with a small amount of water and we use for Sashimi or Sushi easily.

      @WaoryuONLYinJAPAN  9 лет назад +4

      Frederick König Nice combo! I had to Google Emmentaler Cheese and found it to also be called Swiss Cheese in the US. I think the wasabi can bring out the flavor it certain foods and some cheeses is a good example of that. Thank you! I'm going to try it as soon as I can find Emmentaler cheese in Japan. -John

    • @60frederick
      @60frederick 9 лет назад +1

      WAORYU ONLYinJAPAN What? Emmentaler is called Swiss Cheese in the US? There are so many different cheeses here in Switzerland like the Appenzeller cheese, the Gruyere Cheese, the Tilsiter cheese, eg. If you like cheese and if you would be here I do recommend to you to try all different kind of Swiss cheeses. They are so おいしい!It is like all Japanese eat only sushi... I am so surprised!

    I hate wasabi, but I love spicy foods, it's the taste that gets me. Do we have real wasabi in the US? I know I can buy it in a jar or a sauce container, but not fresh. I'm wondering if it's real or of they just mix horseradish and other ingredients to make it resemble wasabi. I wonder if Japanese restaurants in the states use the fake wasabi?

    • @stfn112
      @stfn112 9 лет назад +2

      Noslack412 I recently looked it up too, and apparently it is indeed horseradish mixed with mustard. I wonder if real wasabi is even spicier. I'm not a big fan of its taste (fake one anyway), but it's very interesting to see the effort that goes into it.
      They probably use the fake one too, the price would have to go up quite a bit if they had to import real wasabi. I'm guessing most people don't even know the truth about it.

      stfn112 It's has a wider flavor and isn't as edgy (hot) as the "fake" one... It just tastes better overall and way more "balanced"...
      Honestly... If I could decide between Real and Fake Wasabi, I would always decide for the real one...

      In Lebanon you can choose what kind of wasabi you want. If you want the fake wasabi, it’s free. But if you want real wasabi, it’s 25$ and you need to eat it quickly because it looses its flavor in 20min.
