Natto Demonstration (lecture, tasting, Q&A) The demo will include samples of fresh natto and offer ideas for traditional and non-traditional preparations. In Japan, natto is highly regarded as a "superfood" with many health benefits including cardiovascular health, brain function, bone and teeth strength, and improved digestive system. Because all natto imported into the United States is frozen, this is a very rare opportunity to taste fresh, organic natto, whether you consid...er yourself a fan or not yet. February 4 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. Buddhist Temple of San Diego 2929 Market Street $20 Space is limited and registration by email to [email protected] is required.
