Xue Shu laughed and said, "Yes, they were all airlifted together, quite a comprehensive preparation."
Someone nearby asked, "Why didn't it all go to the kitchen together?"
Xue Shu explained, "This stuff has to be freshly ground and eaten immediately to keep the authentic taste."
The person asked again, "How do you eat this? Is it like wasabi, mixed with soy sauce and dipped?"
When it comes to eating, Xue Shu instantly perked up and said seriously, "If you rudely mix the fresh green wasabi paste into soy sauce, it's definitely a waste. The spiciness of wasabi is largely neutralized by the methanol in soy sauce, so when eating, you mustn't let the wasabi touch the soy sauce."
"Moreover, when eating tuna, you should first apply a little wasabi on the sashimi, then dip the other side in soy sauce. This can enhance the sashimi's original flavor and highlight the umami of the soy sauce. Rich, fatty tuna sashimi can be paired with more wasabi to enhance its original taste."
