The Inside Scoop

Did you know?

Natto and kimchi is a combination that feels obvious once you've tried it — both are fermented, both are pungent, and together they balance each other out surprisingly well. The kimchi's garlic-chili heat cuts through natto's earthy funk, creating something greater than the sum of its parts. It's a weeknight dinner hack in many Japanese households, now rolled up and ready to go.

How to eat

  • 1Keep the wrapper on and eat carefully — the filling can shift around more than plain natto maki.
  • 2The spice level is mild-to-moderate — enough to notice, not enough to overwhelm.
