Fune Natto (Boat-shaped Natto)
When you open the boat-shaped wooden container, a gentle woody aroma wafts out—this is the renowned "Fune Natto" from Ibaraki, the kingdom of natto. Marushin Foods, located in Yamakata, Hitachiomiya City, has been producing this since its founding in 1951. The name originated when the previous generation saw ferry boats traveling along the Kuji River and thought, "Why not put natto in a boat-shaped container?" The kyogi (thinly shaved wood) container is designed so that you can add soy sauce and condiments directly into it and mix them, allowing you to enjoy the food without dirtying any extra dishes. This natto is prepared using underflow water from the Kuji River—a clear stream in Okukuji—and soybeans grown in Ibaraki Prefecture. We invite you to savor this authentic, well-defined flavor, complete with its woody aroma, straight from the wooden boat container.
