Natto

description Natto Overview

Natto is a Japanese food made by fermenting cooked soybeans with Bacillus subtilis var. natto. The fermentation produces a characteristic sticky, stringy texture and a strong aroma, along with a savory flavor. Natto is commonly eaten with rice, often at breakfast, and is sold in small containers for home preparation and everyday meals.

Its distinctive texture makes it readily distinguishable from other soybean foods.
