To begin with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can have tofu, egg and natto gratin using 6 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Tofu, Egg and Natto Gratin:
  1. Prepare 1 Egg (M or L)
  2. Take 1 tsp Soy sauce
  3. Prepare 200 grams Tofu

  5. Get 10 grams or (to taste) Cheese
  6. Prepare 1 to 2 teaspoons, (to taste) Mayonnaise (optional)

Even though it's called "tofu", egg tofu does not include soybeans or nigari. It is magnesium chloride which is used to firm soymilk into. This egg is a bit strange because it smells rotten even when it's not. Just imagine what it must smell like when it really is rotten.

Steps to make Tofu, Egg and Natto Gratin:
  1. Add the soy sauce to the egg and mix.
  2. Add the tofu (no need to drain it) and roughly mix it up. Just mix enough to get rid of any big lumps, but there's no need to make it smooth.
  3. Mix the natto with the sauce packet that comes with it. (Use hikiwari (split) natto, or medium sized bean natto, or whatever you like! I prefer small beans.)
  4. Put the Step 2 mixture in a gratin dish (an ovenproof dish), and top with the natto.
  5. Add cheese on top. (I cut up some processed cheese, but, of course, you can use shredded pizza cheese instead.)
  6. Bake in a toaster oven or a 180°C oven for 10 to 15 minutes. When the egg has set, or the top has browned lightly, it's done.
  7. It looks like this inside. It's piping hot and light and creamy.

Natto sushi is a dish we admit to not really getting. Most always in makizushi form, seawood wrapped around rice wrapped around natto, it shows up often in budget sushi sets and kaitenzushi, sushi restaurants with a revolving conveyor belt. Its inclusion is mandatory given its huge popularity. Egg tofu (蛋豆腐), as its name suggests, is made a type of savoury tofu flavoured with egg. It is usually (if not always) available in the tube form.
