About this Event

Natto is one of the world’s healthiest foods and in recent years, this Japanese secret to long life has been discovered and increasingly appreciated by people outside of Japan.

In this class you will learn about the history and the specific health benefits of this amazing food, learn how to make batches of it in your own home, and taste various ways to eat it. Cooking demonstrations will also be done to showcase natto as an ingredient in several dishes. You will go home with dried soybeans specific for natto with a starter to get you going and with knowledge on how you too can live forever like the Japanese.

Please bring a beverage of your choice to cleanse your palate between tastings, something bubbly or carbonated is recommended.
