The quantities follow this count.

2 packets natto
2 eggs
3 cups, cooked short grain rice
1 green onion
1 tbsp soy sauce

How to cook it

Stir the natto vigorously with its sauce packet for about a minute, until it turns pale and stringy.
Divide the hot rice among bowls.
Spoon the natto over the rice and crack a raw egg on top of each bowl, using a pasteurized egg if you prefer.
Drizzle with the soy sauce and scatter with the green onion.
Mix everything together right at the table before eating, the combination most natto eaters actually make, distinct from a plain natto bowl and from a plain egg bowl alike.
