Fresh Wasabi Starter Kit

Fresh Wasabi Starter Kit

This Starter Pack from The Wasabi Company is the perfect introduction to fresh wasabi.

Wasabi is very difficult to grow and had never been successfully cultivated in Europe until The Wasabi Company began growing and harvesting fresh wasabi on their Dorset and Hampshire farms.

This set makes a fantastic and unusual gift, ideal for cooks and wasabi enthusiasts.

Includes:

  • 50g Rhizome
  • Small stainless steel wasabi grater
  • Bamboo Wasabi Grater Brush
  • Fresh wasabi preparation & storage guide

Each prized rhizome takes at least 18 months to reach harvest. Finely grating it breaks down the wasabi at a cellular level, instigating an enzyme reaction that delivers an aromatic, fresh flavoured pungency which has a natural sweetness.

Fresh wasabi is traditionally paired with sushi and sashimi, however, it is very versatile and can also be used to flavour dressings, butter, sauces, ceviches, gravadlax, sorbets, foams and meat or fish.

The grater included is specially designed to help you create finely textured wasabi, while the bamboo brush is perfect to remove wasabi from the grater.

Everything comes presented in a presentation box, to make a wonderful gift.

Rhizome Storage: The rhizome will store well for two weeks or more when individually wrapped in damp paper towels or the muslin cloth in which they are sent. Store in an uncovered bowl in the fridge. 

Instructions are included in the box to re-pack fresh items: If you have purchased a wasabi rhizome, please remove the muslin, rinse the rhizome in cold water, dry with a cloth and place it in the fridge, in the plastic bag, without sealing the bag.

If your rhizome has been purchased as a gift, you will find that we have included items that will help you refresh the packaging· Wasabi label - use to reseal the postage box· Spare muslin cloth - use to re-wrap the rhizome with a clean cloth and return to unsealed bag prior to giving· Ice pack - follow the instructions on the bag to enable you to reuse the pack when making up the box, this will keep wasabi cool for 12-24 hours depending on surrounding temperature· Ask the recipient of the wasabi to refrigerate as soon as they can after opening. The rhizome will store well for two weeks in the plastic bag it was sent in, keep the bag in the fridge, unsealed.

FRESH WASABI GIFT BOX - ALL ORDERS ARE PACKED AND SENT IN OUR GIFT BOX. The box will be sealed in a sleeve to keep it clean and sent without our branding to keep your secret. Full instructions are included in the box to allow you to open it, store any fresh produce and then re-box when you are ready to give your gift. The boxes are marked "open & refrigerate". Fresh wasabi will last two weeks in the fridge if the instructions inside the box are followed.

Just what I wanted to complete my dipping of my toes into authentic Korean cuisine it has the sharp but bitter taste needed to cleanse the palette in desserts especially after a spicy main. It has a price and must be a considered buy, but in my mind it was worth it.!!
