Natto Pasta

Natto Pasta

Natto (納豆) is a traditional Japanese food that is made from fermented soy beans. It is packed with nutrients such as vitamins, proteins, and minerals. While there are so many health benefits, Natto is probably among the least favored Japanese foods by non-Japanese people. The texture is slimy, and there is a distinct smell that you may not used to. However, with the right seasonings and flavorful toppings, it becomes so much easier to eat even if you are not familiar with the flavor.

Natto Pasta is a simple dish that is made with spaghetti and Natto. Sticky and slimy texture of the Natto seasoned with soy sauce and olive oil becomes like a thick sauce. Poached egg adds the creaminess, and flavorful toppings such as chopped green onions, shiso leaves, and nori seaweed adds the freshness and texture to the dish. If you can find a package of Natto at a Japanese market in your area, don’t hesitate to get it and try this Natto pasta!
