Home economics, i guess :mrgreen:

Can someone please tell me the name of this one bean paste bread dessert. It is shaped like a star fish and the paste is purpleish. A Japanese exchange student gave me one once and I LOVED IT.

I went to a local Mitsuwa (Japanese supermarket) and described it to a clerk but she looked at me confused. Maybe if I knew the name it would be easier to find.

Yeah...

Cold storage in Taka has all the nattos you want... They have a wide range of japanese snacks, food, sushi, udon and etc... I just went there on friday... :D

I tried natto once and I didn't like the taste... I wonder why japanese ppl like it so much esp TK.... -_-"

Natto is fermented soybeans with Bacillus subtilis natto living in rice straws. Normally eaten with rice.

The red bean pancake u mentioned. I think it should be called as Doriyaki.

was just wondering if you have to add anything to natto before you eat it.... like soya sauce or something.... cos' i always see the japanese adding something to it before they eat it....

erm... i don't think you need to cook it....
just open up the package and you can eat it... but i think still need to add some condiments... but like i mentioned b4, i don't know what it is.... :sweat:

i really dun dare to try natto ne~.. many people love it but at the same time many people can't stand the sight of it.. well.. once you've tried it can you tell me how it tastes..? :mrgreen:

Anything goes for me! Ramen, udon, tempura, sushi, sashimi, tendon, gyudon, japanese breakfast, takoyaki, yakitori, okonomiyaki etc. :drooling:
Never tasted sukiyaki, too pricey.

cant wait to try natto...
it looks slimy right
with all those beans
>_<

Hmm,

I've tasted natto before and in my opinion, I didn't like the taste. You can add soya sauce to it if ya want as it's included in the package.

I told myself I would never eat natto in my whole life unless TK makes it for me... *wishful thinking* :love_eyes:
