Japanese Natto ( なっとう or 納豆 ) Recipe

TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: Nattō (なっとう or 納豆) is a traditional Japanese food made from soybeans fermented with Bacillus subtilis. Some eat it as a breakfast food. It is served with soy sauce, karashi mustard and Japanese bunching onion.

Nattō may be an acquired taste because of its powerful smell, strong flavor, and slimy texture.

Natto is almost always eaten over rice. It is extremely simple to prepare: you mix Natto with soy sauce or Mentsuyu and stir vigorously until forming sticky goo around the beans. Then pour it over hot rice. You can add toppings like chopped green onions and Japanese mustard, but basically that’s it. There can’t be an easier breakfast than this.

In Japan nattō is most popular in the eastern regions, including Kantō, Tōhoku, and Hokkaido.

By mass, natto is 55% water, 18% protein, 11% fats, 5% fiber, and 5% sugars.

A serving of natto (100g) provides 29% of the Daily value (DV) of Vitamin K2, 22% of the DV for Vitamin C, 76% of the DV for manganese, 48% of the DV for iron, and 22% of the DV for dietary fiber.
