Kingzest wasabi-flavored horseradish paste is an essential condiment for enhancing Japanese specialties and adding a spicy touch to many Asian recipes. Ready to use, this paste is ideal for serving with sushi, sashimi, maki, meats, fish, seafood, or even homemade marinades and sauces.

Tasting notes

The Kingzest wasabi-flavored horseradish paste wins you over with its fresh, vegetal character and lively heat that develops quickly in the mouth before fading within moments. Unlike chili, its intensity is concentrated mainly in the nasal passages, providing an invigorating sensation without masking the flavors of the food.

Its taste recalls the typical notes of wasabi served in Japanese restaurants: a fresh, slightly herbaceous and subtly peppery flavor. Its smooth, creamy texture makes it easy to incorporate into sauces, dressings or marinades, while allowing precise dosing according to individual preferences.

Intensity of the wasabi horseradish paste

Kingzest wasabi-flavored horseradish paste has a medium to strong intensity (3.5/5). Its heat is bold but balanced, making it accessible to both Japanese cuisine enthusiasts and palates that appreciate spicy condiments.

Its aromatic character brings freshness without lasting burn. A few grams are enough to enhance a dish, while a more generous amount will suit those who enjoy more intense sensations.

How to use the sauce?

Very versatile, Kingzest wasabi-flavored horseradish paste can be used in many preparations:

• Serve alongside sushi, maki, nigiri and sashimi.

• Mix it with soy sauce to create a full-flavored dipping sauce.

• Stir some into mayonnaise to make an ideal sauce for shrimp, sweet potato fries or vegetables.

• Add some to a dressing to liven up a raw vegetable salad or a poke bowl.

• Brush over fish, white meats or seafood before cooking.

• Incorporate it into an Asian marinade made with soy sauce, honey and ginger.

• Flavor a salmon, tuna or beef tartare with a small dollop of paste.
