In my Channel, I show step by step of alternative but authentic Japanese home cooking, which can be made with the ingredients that are easily available outside of Japan.
In this video, I am explaining about Natto, what it is and how you can prepare it deliciously. Natto is a traditional Japanese food made from soybeans that have been fermented. It is typically served as a breakfast food and contains an Enzyme called "Nattokinase", which thins the blood and helps break up blood clots. This helps to prevent against heart disease and conditions such as stroke, heart attack, and others. It is said to lower the blood pressure and blood sugar rate.

I used to hate natto with a passion. A month ago, i decided to buy a pack (comes with 3 little boxes) to lower my cholestorol. The first box i ate, i didn't like it. The 2nd box, i thought it tasted ok. Third box, i thought it was absolutely delicious. Now, i eat this EVERY day. I mix woth a chopstick at least 300 times and eat it with rice. So delicious!!!

American (Michigan) born here: first time I had natto was in NYC many years ago. My Japanese girlfriend at the time wanted me to try it and was surprised that I enjoyed it right of the bat! I would love to make this recipe, it looks delicious!

@AlyxGalaxy 3 года назад

It took my 4th try to genuinely like it! I was determined to like it, because why the heck not? Now I can’t get enough of it! I’m almost addicted to it! I love it so much now!

@taijiskitchen 3 года назад

wow, you were so eager to try and like it?! respect! thank you for your comment and glad you are addicted now, hehe!

@YvieMcStevie Год назад

Same!!! I was determined too! It's one of my favorite foods now.

@lutece6556 Год назад

Geez, the first natto inventor was a real culinary adventurer for trying out this recipe As a big cheese lover i'll try to find some natto, might like it right at the first try ! Thanks for all of your wonderful recipes sir, you've really changed the way I eat everyday

@marie-christineparsons8626 29 дней назад

I cannot wait to try it! It looks delicious!!!

@YvieMcStevie Год назад

I LOOOOOOOOOVE nattō! I did not dig it the first two times I tried it, but I was determined to like it because the health benefits are fantastic! The sauce + mustard are a must, imo! It's seriously a great food to include in your diet! If you don't like it the first time, just give it a chance and try it again. Sooo yummy.

@Rakkari 3 года назад

Just went out and bought some Natto to try for breakfast tomorrow morning! I really appreciate all of the time you're putting in to bring all of these great dishes to people. Keep up the good work.

I first tried natto last year. I'm glad they sell it in a pack of three. The first time I tried it, I hated it. But I didn't want to waste it, so I ate the rest of it. The second time, I still hated it, but I kind of couldn't wait until the next time I ate it. The third time, I liked it lol.

@bmedve3427 Год назад

Thank you for your instructions with natto! I feel I am slowly getting there! Today must have been my 6th attempt, and I had most ingredients at hand, except for the cooked rice. The Japanese mustard, ao nori and yakitori no tare were new additions to soya sauce and scallions. They definitely give natto a lovely rounded taste. Also, I find mixing the natto first neutralizes the cheesy smell. Getting there, absolutely happy about this, thank you!!!

@bmedve3427 Год назад

Very yummy with rice this morning! Next level: make an onigiri that doesn't disassemble - the taste with the nori sheet was still something else. Thank you again, Taiji Sensei!

@smileytow1925 Год назад

I tried to like Natto, I really really did….. I even looked into making my own, buying the bacteria to ferment the soy bean, I just couldn’t get used to it…. It’s good for your bones….. I ended up buying natto ( nattokanase something like that, in a capsule form ( always better to eat foods in there natural forms I feel. But again I just couldn’t get myself to like it. Maybe it’s time to try again. ( it’s been like 10 years) I might try your natto with spaghetti noodle recipe! New subscriber here! I am enjoying your videos thank you ❤️ saw your what a Japanese home looks like for my first video from you and I enjoyed it.

Natto is actually a super food to vitamin k2 which is rare to find even in supplement form, may be that's the reason why Japanese live longer too 😊

A perfect presentation. Even a piece of history in it. Needless to say how healthy Vitamin K2. It helps to direct calcium for better absorption in bones, instead of blood vessels calcification. With a deepest gratitude for sharing your knowledge.

I like eating natto, but I added a raw egg instead of with rice (I found the raw egg option from some videos before I started some years ago). Then I stopped, which I can't remember why 😅 Well, with its benefits you mentioned in this video, I'll surely start again.

@mikiohirata9627 Год назад

Japanese food quality control is one of the best in the world and you almost never find eggs that are contaminated with harmful bacteria so that we can eat it row. You find many Japanese dishes eaten with row eggs. (sukiyaki, and many donburi with only slitely cooked egg to congeal other ingredients.). I always use row egg when I eat natto I live in US but never had any issues.

Try making a natto sandwich! Why not, right? Delicious! On rice, we sometimes add suri-daikon and nori strips to it.

@andyhughes1776 5 месяцев назад

I just tried Natto and it smells like an old wet rag. Adding the mustard makes it smell a little bit less disgusting. But I also added green onions and cilantro so it helps considerably. I ate it with rice.

@whatbringsmepeace Год назад

Thank you so much for the detailed tutorial. I've just read that natto fixes the spike protein from covid and vaccines so I'm keen to eat it but didn't know how. Much appreciated!

@Annie5825 5 месяцев назад

I just came across this video because I bought some natto today from a small local shop. I’ve been curious about it for quite some time. It was this brand, but came frozen and the packaging had no preparation instructions. So I came to RU-vid to try to figure it out. I’ve moved one box to the refrigerator. I’m still not sure exactly how I’m going to prepare it, but it will involve.

@spyretto 6 месяцев назад

I finally tried it. It smells like raw yeast I think, nowhere near as bad as I thought it would. Tastes just like that, a bit mild. I can see why westerners might not like it. but I feel that if you mix it with other foods or condiments it will flourish.

@lila3372 2 года назад

Just the introduction to Nattō I needed! Been meaning to try it for a while! One question re the sauce within the package - as it's with dashi, would you reckon that only using tamari and mustard works just as well to make it vegan? or would you add anything else to it like some kind of vinegar or kombu dashi? Thank you!

@taijiskitchen 2 года назад

glad you like my video! maybe this will be for you next to check out, Natto pasta! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8YFlIWabEeA.html to answer your question, just with soy sauce and mustard is fine, thats how they ate Natto before. if you want to add Kombu dashi, its also good, but I wouldn't add vinegar. But also at the end of the day, the most important thing is that YOU enjoy it!! so try different variations and see what you like best!

@johnlahti1727 3 года назад

You were so eager to eat natto you didn't bother to undo your tasuki. :)

@taijiskitchen 3 года назад

@grovermartin6874 2 года назад

Thank you! That was very clear, at a good speed, and clear videography. Now, to get up my nerve! I read that the abwrage person needs to be exposed to a new food 126 times before enjoying it. Maybe I will find tiny portions individually frozen at the Asian market. That would be perfect. The studies that have been done on natto are eye opening. It will be worth investigating with my mouth!

@mstevenchapman 3 месяца назад

I have a slight intolerance to rice. Do you recommend any non-starch dish to complement the natto? D peeps ever eat it with a type of noodles?

@lingo-phile Год назад

Do you eat it cold, room temperature or warm it up?

@dannac_8888 Год назад

Natto, organic non-GMO is the single best source of vitamin K2. This vitamin is critical to prevent calcium build up in the arteries. Drown it in soy sauce, mustard, wasabi and mirin if you want, but it's probiotic content and copper, calcium, magnesium, potassium and iron content make it a superfood. But- Natto has side effects on certain people. For example, people with bleeding disorders, who are on blood thinners, people with low blood pressure and on antihypertensive drugs must avoid natto. Also, two weeks before surgery, you must reduce its consumption to ensure no risk of excessive bleeding.Jul 26, 2022 🙏🌞 I've never seen any chef wrap his kimono like you did. Is that a standard or a method you learned from a specific chef or family member from where you were born?

@ahavahyisrael Год назад

One of the biggest health benefits is blood thinning and clot breakup but if it has vitamin K2 then that would counteract the blood thinning effects of it. Anyone have more info about this?

@ivorybow 2 года назад

So far I can only find it frozen, so I am going to make my own. Articles say that freezing it removes a lot of the enzymes and helpful bacteria. I did find the spore culture.

@taijiskitchen 2 года назад

outside Japan, Natto can be found only frozen. I buy them also frozen. not sure about the enzymes, but the fungus is alive, since you can make new natto out of frozen natto.

Is it possible to make the sushi rolls in advance, say night before for lunch the next day? Do you think if it's stored after mixed with soy sauce and mustard the bacteria would die and it would lose it's benefits? Or maybe seaweed would get soggy? I am always rushing to work in the morning and never really cook rice so making it in advance would really help me out. Thank you!

I once tried it neat (oops! - that was long before I did independent research). Even though I love other soy products, I couldn't get past the smell! Nowdays, I would love to give it another try. Do you have any tips for flavourings for a complete beginner?

@mikiohirata9627 Год назад

It's just like certain cheese that so many ppl can't get past smell or looks. You just have to try it with RICE (plain Japanese type). You can also mix it with Miso instead of Soy sauce I do it all the time and mix in finely chopped onion instead of spring onion. Try it it's delicious. Oh one more thing ,you must whip Natto at least 100 times before you add anything into it. More air you mix in more stringy it becomes and nutritional values go up.

If you like spiciness you must definitely add mustard or even wasabi (as you find in Sushi bar ) You can also mix with miso instead of shoyu. Try it you'll like it.

Im gonna keep eating it for my digestive issues tho

@veronicabustamante9882 2 года назад

What type of mustard did you add?

@taijiskitchen 2 года назад

I added the mustard that was inside the package, its Japanese mustard; no vinegar added in compare to western mustard. but you can use regular western mustard as well.

@mikiohirata9627 Год назад

Japanese style mustard is just straight mustard powder mixed with water so it's very pungent (spicy) than western or Chinese style which like Japanses without vinegar but watery.

The smell is tamed or none at all. Was expecting it to be strong as durian or fermented fish sauce or dried bacalao. It just smells like coffee. The taste is... Bland to me?(you are right, thr soy sauce in the packet isn't strong enough) Boyo I was reaching for the soy sauce. The only off putting thing for me is it's more slimy than eating okra. Otherwise it's ok. XD
