The right grater will determine the taste of your wasabi!

To get the most out of your wasabi, it's important to choose the right grater. There are many different types of graters available, and the type you choose will affect the flavor and texture of your wasabi.

Types of Wasabi Graters

Wasabi graters are available in a variety of materials, but the two most commonly known are the "shark skin grater" and the "metal grater." There are also wasabi graters made from plastic, ceramic, and aluminum.

Wasabi is said to dislike metal, so we recommend transferring the wasabi grated with a metal grater into a ceramic or other container as soon as possible.

Shark Skin Grater: Highly viscous and rich in flavor

The "Shark Skin Grater" features fine teeth, allowing you to grate the wasabi finely and creamily. This breaks down the wasabi cells, increasing the viscosity and resulting in a flavorful grated wasabi. It is perfect for sashimi and wasabi rice bowls .
