Wasabi leaves
20cm wide heart shaped
Wasabi leaves are the fast growing part of the wasabi plant. During it's life time most of it's energy is put into growing leaves. In wintertime these leaves are depleted and fall off storing all nutrients in the rhizome.
The leaves have a vibrant green color with a great and interesting texture. They can be used raw in e.g. salades. However, they don't have the heat of the wasabi rhizome or stalks. They are great for pickling and off course for decorating a plate.
You can also these leaves in your sushi as an replacement for sheets of nori.
Stores well in the fridge for 7 days.
