Hahaha. This is delicious.

Stop putting bubble gum in your soda, Yao Lang.
I've been mixing wasabi with my soy sauce in sushi restaurants for 25 years, no fucks given, and aren't about to stop just because /ck/ says it's not authentic.
I'm guessing OP stopped eating bacon and avocados when the internet informed him that they're memes.
>>7729125
I have seen japs in japan do this, only autists give a fuck.
I don't mess with that stuff. All that fucking salt, probably would make me hate sushi.
>>7729125
i hope you're just mixing these and not making a meal of it.
What about now?
>>7729198
Hahahaha
>sushi traditionalists
I made sushi for many years and traditional methods are very boring and overcomplicated
it's your food, eat it how you like. Just dont expect me to make it how you like. Sushi is an art, not a food. Dont fuck with my art, but your eating habits are up to you.
>>7729222
>just dont expect me to make it how you like
actually if it's youre fucking mimimum wage job to make it yes you will
and you can forget about the dollar in your tip jar for the shitty attitude
>>7729227
this is the exact reason I no longer make sushi.
>>7729138
>do something traditionally wrong
>don't fix it
is not the same as
>stop liking food because it became meme tier
TL:DR
you have shit taste
and it didn't matter if people tell you otherwise (traditionally)
>>7729231
In both cases you've been doing something a certain way your entire life, same as everyone around you, same as the people working in the sushi restaurant, and then you're expected to change something that was always enjoyable because the internet tells you to.
If I go to Jiro's, sure, I'll do things the traditional way. But people who let the internet dictate the food they eat for stupid reasons that don't improve the quality of the eating experience are pathetic.
>>7729125
Wasabi goes inside the sushi, if it comes on the outside its already crap sushi
>>7729237
>for stupid reasons that don't improve the quality of the eating experience are pathetic.
I agree.
But what if the reason isn't stupid, and it's actually an improvement?
>>7729387
>what if the reason isn't stupid, and it's actually an improvement
That's called giving advice.
I'll never accept someone's opinion that they think well-done steak is the best way to eat steak, and will tell them that they're wrong and make fun of them for it. It has nothing to do with traditions or memes; they're just doing something that's making their food worse and insisting that that's the way they like it.
>>7729227
Actually, we have a menu. Order from the menu, don't go making up your own bullshit rolls.
>This is what I usually get at my favorite restaurant back home!
Yeah, well, you're not at your favorite restaurant back home, you're at our restaurant now.
I took a trip to Japan in high school and one of the inns we stayed at had a fancy, traditional dinner the first night (we were usually just provided breakfast and fended for ourselves for lunch and dinner). Anyway, our teacher, a native, explained that it was kind of a faux pas to mix wasabi in your soy sauce, but then she was like, "but I do it anyway haha."
>>7729128
holy shit the retardation is off the charts
>>7729449
yeah and it's localized in your post
>>7729198
looks like diarrhea but is probably supreme tasty
>>7729379
In a decent restaurant it is, even here in the UK we have a farmer growing wasabi.
>>7729426
It's one of those things that everybody know is supposed to be bad manners, but people do it anyway. The only issue would be if you did it at one of those high-end edomae counter places where the chef wants to control how you eat everything.
>>7729125
if its good, then i suggest not wasting the fucking good fish on that shit and buy some shitty murica rolls.
>>7729125
I'm not a sushi chef, so I don't care.
Also, there's no rule against mixing horseradish with soy sauce.
>>7729125
Both me and my native jap wife do this. Nobody actually cares except weeaboos.
>>7729198
i'd really eat that and slurp up the soup too!
>>7729960
Is her cunt slanted like her eyes?
The wasabi needs to be on the sushi by itself so that the heat aerates and spreads throughout your mouth. When you mix it with soy sauce you get soy sauce that tastes weird and wasabi that isn't as spicy.

Thanks for the (You) you stupid cunt :^)
I only replied once to my post though
>>7729449
enjoy your teens while they last
>>7729405
ok, then stop ruining your sushi by making a weird paste with your soy sauce and horseradish. It's worse that way.
>>7731682
*dabs wasabi on fish*
*dips fish in shoyu*
Holy shit, anon! That makes such a huge difference, I never knew what I was missing!
>>7730142
>>7729543
>>7729237
These are correct.
My gf does this mixing thing. I told her about how it's traditionally bad manners but nobody really gives a shit just as a conversation piece.
I just love a big ol'glob of wasabi on simple salmon roll. I wanna feel it punch my nose out traveling up and around my skull till I feel it in the back of my head

I had a close friend whose mother took in Asian exchange students.
All of them said they had see people do this before, and didn't really have an opinion against it. They said they were fine with it, even those who didn't do it.
Sometimes I do it - sometimes I don't. Depends what I'm eating. If I can, I have one small dish mixed, and one small dish soy sauce only, with wasabi separate on the plate.
tl;dr? Asians don't give a flying fuck if you do this. Avoiding it to be "authentic" is fucking retarded. Just do what you like. No one fucking cares.
>>7731747
Fuck, why did I tl;dr this? Don't drink /ck/.
>>7730169
Rich faggots love locally grown shit, they love exclusive shit, they love London ... so yeah, UK is growing Wasabi.
>>7729125
No the only thing that triggers me is when people put the ginger on their sushi, like why it completely overpowers the flavor of the fish
>>7731776
People who do this are fucked. Ginger is to cleanse your palette.
>>7731778
>Ginger is to cleanse your palette.
When will this meme end
>>7731875
>meme
>literally it's purpose
Are you retarded?
>>7731942
It's a behavior that has spread through a population, therefore it's a meme. When will it end?
>>7731987
>memes are muh funny internet pictures.
>>7732001
Do you think that's really a sensible interpretation of the quoted post?
>>7731778
>WAHHHH STOP EATING IT WRONG! DO IT LIKE MY SENSAY CHANKUN SAYS!!!!!!
kys. I'll eat it how I want to, nigger.
>>7729125
Do you people actually use that much soy sauce?
I maybe only ever use a couple tablespoons or so. Granted I'm not drenching every single grain of rice in the sauce.
>>7732050
I tried to tell a chick about this, that the the pickled ginger is ment to eat in between, not as a garnish.
soy and wasabi is a garnish, so i don't see the problem with it.
it's more a faux pas because it looks like liquid dhierra, and disgusting to others at the table, so if you're alone it's fine, or if other people don't care it's fine, just like if no one cares when you burp out loud, IT'S FINE.
>>7729125
Disgusting/10

>ginger on sushi doesn't make sense
how about this crazy gem: it tastes good, you fuckin faggot
>>7731987
I believe your defining culture. It will never end.
>>7732068
>It's supposedly grown in top secret too.
It's not really *that* secret, you can figure it out if you want to. But yeah it's not like they have a map on their website with "THE EXPENSIVE WASABI IS GROWN HERE YO!" on it.
>>7729125
Seeing this is the same as seeing someone mix ketchup and mustard together or double-dipping; I don't give a single fuck as long as we don't have to share.
>>7733624
Nobody shares soy sauce when eating sushi.
Wait what the fuck?
People are saying that putting wasabi in your soy sauce is not OK?
My asian friend introduced me to asian cuisine, how to hold chopsticks, and sushi and shit and she was the one who taught me to put wasabi to the soy sauce
Then another time I west for sushi with some friends and among those friends is one of my asian friends whos basically straight off the boat and I went to put the wasabi in my soy sauce and the dude gave me an ok_hand called me an honorary asian
So why the fuck are there people saying this is taboo?
>>7734314
>why the fuck are there people saying this is taboo
They read an article somewhere on the internet about how it was considered bad manners 300 years ago when dining with the emperor.

[spoiler]I don't actually care how you choose to eat anything.[/spoiler]
>>7731987
Literally every food you didn't discover entirely on your own is a meme.
>>7734314
It tastes shittier.
>>7734314
Honestly, I don't trust Asians with Asian food anyway. I have never felt the need to use soy sauce with my sushi, unless it's grocery store sushi that's been sitting around for a while and the rice isn't as tender. Sometimes with sashimi, but not usually. I never use the wasabi or horseradish.
Same with pho. Why ruin a good broth by using hoisin and sriracha? You don't get to do that and then laugh at Americans dumping ketchup and ranch dressing on everything. Take it easy on the overpowering additions.
Asians also eat loads of things not because of their flavor but because of folk superstitions. A lot of Western food combinations started out that way too, but we ditched the ones that were nasty or pointless and kept the ones that tasted good or were necessary for survival.
