Wasabi

Wasabi is a plant closely related to cabbages and horseradish. It is commonly known as Japanese horseradish. However, wasabi does have the strong flavor or "kick" of horseradish.

Wasabi has strong, spicy taste, different from the taste of capsaicin, the chemical found in chili peppers that gives them their hot or spicy flavor. 

The health benefits of wasabi include providing a reduced risk of ancer and heart disease, as well as anti-inflammatory properties for joints ans muscles. Wasabi's wealth of antioxidants helps to boost the immune system and remove harmful toxin from the body
