Interesting. Capsaicins (the active ingredients in chili peppers, etc.) are notoriously decongestant; indeed, in my household, we will sometimes remark that a particular dish 'cleared me right up.' I'd never thought to experiment as to whether this was true of wasabi. Hmmm... what about Chinese mustards?
