One of Seijo Ishii's popular products, "Hand-rolled Natto". I actually tried the sweets that are rumored to be addictive once I ate them. It's as delicious as the reputation!
Seijo Ishii Hand-rolled Natto
We use dried natto made from domestic soybeans, glutinous rice made in Japan with rich flavor, and seaweed from Ariake that has a crisp texture. Since the hand-rolled sushi-style shape cannot be made by machine, it is finished by manually wrapping seaweed one by one. The craftsman adjusts the composition of fats and oils according to the temperature and humidity on the day of manufacture to achieve a crispy texture of hail and dried natto.
"Narujo Ishii Temaki Natto 3 Kinds Mix" is a combination of 3 kinds of Temaki Natto plain, Kishu plum flavor, and cheese flavor. The price is 1,590 yen (excluding tax).
First of all, eat from plain. The moment you raise your teeth is crisp and light. It unwinds softly, and the more you chew it, the more sticky it becomes like natto. It has the umami of beans and moderate saltiness, but the peculiar bitterness is modest. The crispy seaweed fragrance also assists in the deliciousness. At first, it looks like a snack, but it is unique in that it shifts to a texture and taste reminiscent of a real natto roll!
Umeboshi from Wakayama prefecture is used for Kishu plum flavor. The richness of natto and the faint acidity of plums go well together! A refreshing scent will come out to your nose.
Hokkaido cheese is used for the cheese taste. Cheese wraps the habit of natto mellowly, so even people who are not good at natto will be addicted to it. The tingling stimulus of black pepper is a pleasant accent.
"Seijo Ishii Temaki Natto" has a unique taste and taste. I can't stop eating one more thing. It's a little expensive, but it's a product you'll want to try.
