Mixing wasabi with soy sauce

whats the difference in doing that?

it's not wasabi

it's colored horseradish

please correct accordingly

thanks

The difference between mixing and keeping them separate? The taste. The consistency and texture. The first kick of the wasabi, horse radish in most cases, is lost when mixed with soy sauce. Instead of feeling a rush of fire up the sinuses when you eat wasabi as it was intended, you get a mildly spicy soy sauce instead.

I don't use anything when I eat sushi. No dipping and I never, ever eat rolls. Sashimi or nigri only.

you are making very little sense, if any

Yes, but instead of using my fingers, I use the tip of my chopstick. The correct, historical, and most enjoyable way to eat sushi or sashimi is smear a little wasabi under the fish, lightly dab the top of the fish in soy sauce and eat. When you get to your last chew, cleanse your palate with the pickled ginger.

Rolls? Glassman, I look down on people who eat rolls about the same as those who eat at chain restaurants.

Rummel, you always bring a smile to my face.

brain cells are terrible things to waste..

True, but this board is notorious for making fun of people who eat food stuffed with cream cheese, foods marinated overnight with Italian dressing, and chain restaurants. Why not add one more dining peccadillo?
