I don't know you've seen this kind of package at a super-market,
or at the Japanese Inn's breakfast.
It's called Natto-Fermented soy beans.
It's very rich in nutrients,
Natto is a complete protein, containing all the
essential amino acids
and is comparable to meat or dairy products as a protein
source.
I remember my grandma said it was the beef of the field.
Generally there are 3 small packages in one pack,
it costs about 100 JPY or so, quite cheap.
Just like this small package.
You will find small mustard and soy sauce packages inside.
Mix together with chopsticks, mix well then it goes to be sticky.
Since I don't like too much sticky Natto so I beat them a bit only.
Someone put them on a rice, someone eat separately.
The many people put them on the rice,
then put sesame, chopped green onion, dried seaweed on the top.
My foreign friend said "I absolutely can't stand the smell of Natto!!"
I disliked Natto when I was small due to its smell,
but now I love it!!
Why don't you try it ?
