Not paste. Just fermented beans. You stir that shit up and it forms sticky threads. I can’t stand it but I used to eat it when I didn’t know any better.
Over a decade in Japan and I still can’t eat more than one or two beans at a time and only the small cut ones. Anything else and I’m gagging. I want to like it but my body refuses
