toast with natto and egg salad

I'll be the first to admit that natto isn't for everyone, but its health benefits are undeniable. Packed with the powerful enzyme nattokinase and the beneficial bacteria Bacillus subtilis, this fermented superfood is a nutritional powerhouse. While its unique taste and texture may take some getting used to, I highly encourage you to try it at least once—you might just end up loving it as much as I do!

If you love creamy egg salad and enjoy the bold, slightly bitter, umami-rich flavors of natto, this toast is a must-try. Combining the smooth texture of eggs with the fermented complexity of natto creates a deeply satisfying and nutrient-packed meal. The slight tang from mustard and soy sauce, paired with the crunch of fresh scallions, makes every bite a delightful balance of flavors and textures.

Served on crispy gluten-free toast, this dish is not only delicious but also a powerhouse of protein, probiotics, fiber and other essential nutrients. Whether you’re looking for a quick breakfast, a light lunch, or a nourishing snack, natto egg salad toast is a simple yet flavorful way to elevate your everyday meals.
