Natto Breakfast Bowl

Weeknight-friendly Japanese cooking: Natto Breakfast Bowl comes together in 10 minutes with natto, cooked rice, and not much else. At 300 calories and 6g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. Naturally vegetarian and vegan, it scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 2 packs Natto
• 1 cup Cooked rice
• 2 Scallions
• 1 tsp Soy sauce
• 1 tsp Japanese mustard
• 2 sheets Nori
• 1 tsp Sesame oil

Steps

1. Stir each pack of natto vigorously 50 strokes with chopsticks; this builds the signature sticky strings and mellows the flavor.
2. Mix in the included sauce packets, or soy sauce and mustard.
3. Scoop hot rice into a bowl; heat wakes up the natto aroma.
4. Spoon the natto over the rice.
5. Top with sliced scallions, torn nori, and a thread of sesame oil.
6. Eat with chopsticks, mixing as you go; first-timers usually love it by the third bite.
