The most common way to eat natto is to mix rice directly. After you buy natto, you can eat it by directly pouring it into the rice and stirring it evenly. You can also put a raw egg and add some chopped green onion and stir it evenly until you poke it in with chopsticks and pull out the silk.
Natto can also be made into rice balls. If you have enough time, you can wrap natto in rice balls, because natto is sticky and it is convenient to carry and eat.
Eating natto is very simple, because it is packed in fast food. Just open it and pour it on the rice. You can also add some side dishes according to your own taste, such as cabbage and onions. It is worth noting that before eating natto, you must stir the beans until they are sticky. It is best to stir clockwise with chopsticks for at least 50 times until the silk drawn by natto is slightly transparent.
Many people find it difficult to accept natto because of its appearance and taste. I once bought a box of natto from the Internet. Fortunately, I only bought one box. Natto is sticky in the mouth, a little smelly, like soy bean without salt, slightly sweet. Anyway, I'm not used to this smell. Although natto is good, it is not suitable for everyone. The content of protein in natto is high, so it is not suitable for patients with gout and high blood uric acid concentration. People with stomach problems are not suitable for eating, which is easy to stimulate the stomach. People with wounds are not suitable for eating natto, which is not conducive to wound healing.
As a necessary food for Japanese people, it may be because natto has a good health care function that there are so many fans. It may also be that eating habits are different, which is really difficult for other countries to accept. People who want to try natto are advised to be cautious.
