S\u0026amp;B Wasabi Paste 43g delivers that distinctive sharp, fiery, nose-clearing heat that cuts through the richness of fresh fish and elevates every piece of sushi, sashimi, and maki it touches. It's not the burn of chilli — wasabi heat is fast, bright, and clean, hitting the sinuses rather than lingering on the tongue, and fading quickly to leave the food's flavour front and centre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe 43g tube is the perfect table-top size — easy to squeeze, easy to control, and compact enough to keep in the fridge door between sushi nights. Dab a small amount directly onto nigiri, mix into soy sauce for a dipping blend, or spread lightly inside a maki roll before filling. A little goes a long way, and with S\u0026amp;B's consistent heat level and clean flavour, you always know exactly what you're getting. Available for delivery across South Africa from Fabasian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy you'll love it:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAuthentic Japanese wasabi paste from S\u0026amp;B — trusted since 1923\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSharp, fiery, nose-clearing heat that complements sushi and sashimi perfectly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eClean, fast heat that doesn't linger — lets the food's flavour shine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eEasy-squeeze tube with excellent portion control — a little goes a long way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e43g — the ideal table-top size for regular home sushi nights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eThe essential sushi condiment alongside soy sauce and pickled ginger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest enjoyed:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dabbed directly onto nigiri and sashimi, mixed into soy sauce for a spicy dipping blend, spread lightly inside maki rolls before filling, or used as a condiment alongside any Japanese dish that calls for a fiery kick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sushi lovers, home sushi makers, Japanese food enthusiasts, spice lovers who appreciate wasabi's unique heat, and anyone who wants an authentic sushi experience at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is S\u0026amp;B Wasabi Paste made from real wasabi?\u003c\/strong\u003e A: S\u0026amp;B Wasabi Paste is made primarily from horseradish and mustard with wasabi flavouring — this is standard for most wasabi products globally, as real wasabi (Wasabia japonica) is extremely rare and expensive. The flavour and heat profile closely replicates authentic wasabi and is what's used in the vast majority of sushi restaurants worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How spicy is S\u0026amp;B Wasabi Paste?\u003c\/strong\u003e A: Wasabi heat is sharp and intense but short-lived — it hits the nasal passages quickly and fades within seconds, rather than building and lingering like chilli heat. S\u0026amp;B has a consistent, well-calibrated heat level that's noticeable without being overwhelming when used in small amounts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How much wasabi should I use per piece of sushi?\u003c\/strong\u003e A: A small pea-sized amount per piece is typically enough — wasabi is very potent and a little goes a long way. Mix it gently into your soy sauce for a milder, more evenly distributed heat, or apply directly to the fish for a more intense hit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How long does an opened tube of wasabi paste last?\u003c\/strong\u003e A: Refrigerate after opening and use within 1–2 months for best flavour and heat intensity. The heat can diminish slightly over time once opened and exposed to air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Where can I buy wasabi paste in South Africa?\u003c\/strong\u003e A: Available online at Fabasian with fast nationwide delivery across South Africa, including Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and Pretoria.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"S\u0026B","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48170276389091,"sku":"CSS01","price":49.99,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/3405\/1043\/files\/S_BWasabiPaste43g.jpg?v=1772001138","url":"https:\/\/fabasian.co.za\/products\/sb-wasabi-paste-43g","provider":"FAB ASIAN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
