Wasabi-zuke (Wasabi Pickles)
Upon opening the lid, the rich aroma of sake lees gently wafts out. Taking a bite atop a spoonful of rice, the sharp pungency of the wasabi and the mellow sweetness of the sake lees blend exquisitely. This is a traditional delicacy made by finely chopping authentic wasabi from Shizuoka—including both stems and roots—and marinating them in sake lees. It is a flavor born from the meeting of fragrant wasabi nurtured by clear streams and high-quality sake lees. During the Edo period, it was a famous specialty along the Tokaido road enjoyed by travelers, and even today, it continues to be loved as a perfect accompaniment to rice or as a snack for sake. The sharp sting that pierces the nose is an addictive deliciousness once you try it. Please enjoy it alongside steaming hot white rice.
