I love sushi dearly, though I don't get to enjoy it as often as I'd like because A.) I'm a poor college student, and B.) my wife is none-too-keen on it.
When I am lucky enough to have it, I will at least once during my meal place too much wasabi on a piece and breathe fire for 10 minutes. I try to use a dollop no larger than a small pea. How do you guys use it? Am I overly sensitive? I love spicy food in general, but there's something about wasabi that just cuts to the quick with me.
**Also, I realize that I am probably referring to fake or "western wasabi." I hear the real thing isn't quite as murderously spicy.**
