Date: January 27th, 2026 9:43 AM Author: Underhanded motley main people yeah, i know. but does it sell well and for high prices? i remember 20 yrs ago it was insanely expensive in grocery stores -- u could almost go to a hole in the wall jap place for much cheaper.
i remember "fancy" rolls like rainbow rolls being like $10-12 way back when, which was a lot of money then |

Date: January 27th, 2026 10:17 AM Author: dashing factory reset button hell It is common outside Japan, but it is not the traditional way it is done there.
In Japan, the usual practice is to put a small dab of wasabi directly on the fish, then dip the fish lightly into soy sauce. The idea is that the chef has already balanced the flavors, especially at a sushi bar, and mixing wasabi into the soy can overpower both the fish and the rice.
You will still see some Japanese diners mix them, especially in casual settings, but in more traditional contexts it is considered a bit inelegant. Part of the logic is practical too. If you dunk rice into a wasabi-soy slurry, it absorbs a lot of liquid, which can make the rice fall apart and mute the texture the chef worked to get right.
That said, it is not rude in any real sense. It is just a cultural preference around respecting the balance the chef intended. Outside Japan, mixing them has become the default because it is convenient and gives you a consistent punch of heat with each bite. |

They've started selling it at a discount as well, but I don't think proles are excited to shell out $17.49 instead of $20.49 for a roll. |
