Although real wasabi is becoming more available, most sushi restaurants outside of Japan still serve up a paste made of horseradish, mustard, and green food coloring and call it wasabi.

While wasabi is part of the same family of plants as horseradish, that family (Brassicaceae) also includes mustard, broccoli, and cabbage.
