What is the National Natto Appraisal?
About National Natto Appraisal
The Natto Kanpyokai is a review committee held by the National Federation of Natto Cooperative Associations aimed at improving the manufacturing technology and quality of natto. It is held every year as a contest to determine the best natto, a comprehensive nutritional food that Japan boasts to the world. Judges evaluated three items of natto: appearance, aroma, taste and texture. Each exhibiting natto is scored on a scale of 5, and the best natto is awarded the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Award.
* In the item of "appearance (appearance)", "proliferation of Bacillus natto on the surface of soybeans" and "stringiness" are evaluated.
