Maguro Natto

Maguro Natto is simple, elegant, and tasty! We love natto and this is one of our favorite way to enjoy it. Gently mix sashimi-grade tuna with natto and green onions. Pair with hot rice to make it a complete meal.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • ¼ pound sashimi grade tuna (maguro)
  • 1 package natto 50 gram package
  • 1 stalk green onion chopped
  • 1 tablespoon shredded nori optional
  • soy sauce optional
  • wasabi optional

Instructions

  • Clean and then slice the tuna into bite size pieces (aim for ½ inch pieces). Place in a shallow bowl.
  • Prepare the natto. Open the package of natto. Remove the seasoning packets (there are usually two - one is soy sauce-based and another is hot mustard).
    Slide the plastic layer/cover off the natto and discard.
    Open the seasoning packet(s) and add it to the natto.
    Use chopsticks to mix/whip the natto with the seasonings. Mix it really well until the natto looks almost airy and frothy. Aim for at least 100 mixes! Even better if you can do more.
    Add the natto to the bowl - place it next to the chopped tuna so that both ingredients are side by side.
  • Sprinkle chopped green onions and shredded nori (optional) on top. Add a dab of wasabi (optional) on the side of the bowl.
  • Mix it at the table right before you eat. Add a dash of soy sauce if you'd like. Enjoy! Best with a bowl of rice on the side ^_^
