namako is something extra added at the end. Often while a namako isn't necessary, it's usually a welcome addition, sometimes even desirable. Spices are perfect examples of a prototypical namako. Spices are never the substance of a dish, but they frequently contain a majority of the flavor. namako is noticable, like a fancy hat or flair.
