The packaging has no instructions. I usually remove the mustard and then microwave the entire container for one minute. Then, I remove the plastic film and mix the mustard into the natto.
If you search for ways to prepare frozen natto there doesn't seem to be a consensus. What is your method?

Just toss it in the bin without opening the package, wont smell too bad that way either and you wont have to taste it.
On a serious note, my wife usually puts em in the fridge the day before. Or if shes really in a hurry she does like you and microwave it, take off the lid and sauce first leaving the plastic sheet on top. Not sure how long she does it but I’m guessing like half a min at regular (maybe 600w) and then the usual sauce+whisk.
I do the same, maybe 30 seconds and not a minute, and I add both the mustard and the soy sauce (usually they provide both) and stir a lot, I like my natto extra stringy!! 😀
why frozen? i also never microwave it. i prepare it straight from the fridge.
Ha! I have the same ones and yeah no instructions. I got them because you’re lucky to find a place where people know what natto is let alone serve it
I microwaved one but I’m going to try the defrost in the fridge method
