YAMASAN KYOTO UJI Japanese Natto Fermented Soybean, Freeze-Dried Natto Beans, Japanese Probiotic and Prebiotic Superfood - Vitamin K, Low Sodium, Non-GMO, Vegan, Made in Japan 70g(2.4oz)

Well, I finally made a portion of natto. NOT bad at all. Took only 3 hours to process. When I got ready to plate it, I added a few drops of sesame oil and a few dots of yellow mustard. SO delicious. It calms my gut and gives me a bit of protein too. I top my basmati rice with it. It has the distinctive fermented smell, gooey sticky texture, and is almost as good as the frozen from the Japanese store. Would like to see this brand sell freeze dried natto to use like furikake and freeze dried natto powder for the same use. I like this item for daily consumption either on hot rice, possibly a folded nori sandwich, or mixed in a salad kit, or in a veggie or lactose ovo sandwich with homemade sprouts.

Such good taste ! Very easy to rehydrate and make

This was the first natto I tried, and I thought it was thoroughly disgusting in ways that defy description in the English language. But, no choice; I'm taking it for the mk7 because I have abnormal, extremely early onset osteoporosis, and I'm under orders to get all the "bone" vitamins from food sources on top of the mountainous piles of supplements I'm also taking. So I landed on just grabbing a couple handfuls straight out of the bag and chomping on it dry just to get it down every day. Now, while that description might sound like it wouldn't quite warrant this five-star review... hear me out. Because I recently purchased a different brand of batto that was larger, for a better price. Natto is natto, right? NATTO SO FAST. When the new bag arrived, I performed my now-usual osteoporotic self-flagellative routine and grabbed a handful, popped it in my mouth, started chewing, and.... gagged it right back out. It was... it was... I can't even describe how it was. Ick. ICK. How can natto, which is already indescribably bad, be made indescribably worse?? However that is, the cheaper natto brand figured out how to do it. I can only speculate, such as wondering if they perhaps fermented THEIR natto in cat urine in an effort to improve the taste, but the attempt sadly backfired and made a bad thing worse. Downside: Wasted money on that other natto, and natto ain't cheap. Upside: Made THIS brand of natto taste like carnival cotton candy by comparison and I'm sorry I wasn't appropriately appreciative before. I've left the other bag of natto sitting next to it on the counter so every time I grab this one, I'm reminded to be grateful as I choke it down.

As good as non-freeze dried natto. I usually eat regular natto but after this rehydrates it is no different. My only complaint is the size of the bag which is tiny.

As advertised. No evidence of benefit from consuming, but no harm done. Others may have different experience.

Significantly smaller than I was expecting for the price, only slightly larger than my hand and even rehydrated gave very little. Was hoping to find a way to store bulk natto but for the price it is not worth it at all. You can buy fresh/frozen natto at any Asian store for less than a third of the price. Taste was okay, not great compared to regular natto, but that’s to be expected for something freeze dried. Would be worth the purchase if the price wasn’t so exhorbitant.

I don’t live near an Asian grocery store, so I haven’t had natto in a very long time. I was so happy to find YAMASAN KYOTO UJI Japanese Natto Fermented Soybean, Freeze-Dried Natto Beans available online. The freeze-dried natto rehydrated beautifully, and I was able to enjoy that authentic natto flavor again after so many years! I especially love that it’s shelf-stable, so I can keep it on hand and prepare it anytime I’m craving natto. Highly recommend for anyone who doesn’t have easy access to fresh natto.

Love it and you can use it to make your own at home
