Finally, the last of the miso-lime habanero tofu! This is a Mediterranean-Japanese fusion with a bit of pickled ginger & wasabi to seal the role of the land of the rising sun. 🌅
I made bites of greens, tofu, wasabi, avocado, red onion, black olive, and occasionally a banana pepper slice. Ginger in-between every couple of bites. A fun way to finish this tofu and the rest of this particular avocado. 🥑 The wasabi I keep at home is 100x hotter than the stuff you get with takeout sushi. I put 1/10th on and it's 10x hotter. Real-world math. I know that most wasabi is actually horseradish doctored up to mimic wasabi. At least it's mostly horseradish!
I just looked at the ingredients of the wasabi I get and it does claim to have wasabi halfway down the ingredients list. Between water and artificial flavor. I wonder if it's artificial wasabi flavor 😆 And who do I have to lobby to in order to replace 'natural' and 'artificial flavor' ingredients with the actual stuff they're putting in food?! Can I just write a strongly worded tweet or something? Looks like it has added rice bran oil, a rare one that slipped by my radar. Oh well, I'll have to research brands a little, I'm quite chill at not getting to worked up about such things and continually steering in my plant-based, oil-free direction.
Looks like the only brand of potentially actual wasabi I can get locally is '100% genuine wasabi' by 'Sushi Sonic'. I'm pretty sure I tried that brand forever ago, but I switched from the powder to the tube for convenience. Hmm! Please lay some wasabi knowledge down for me if you've got any 🙏🙇💚
