Bentos # 128-133

Bento #133


Breakfast bento – A ‘boy face’ jam sandwich with some mandarin oranges, cherry tomatoes and cornflakes.

M had her close girlfriends and kids over last night for dinner (to ‘lau sang’ aka celebrate and wish each other good health, wealth and prosperity during this New Year period). Decided to contribute my share by making some bentos for them. The dinner bentos (inspired by various Japanese bento-mamas) all contain the same food accompaniments comprising duck, stewed chicken with mushroom and ear-wood fungus, broccoli, cucumber, endamame and kamaboko.

Bento #132

My first onigri Winnie the Pooh bento. The rice is mixed with hard boiled egg yolk to obtain the colour.


Bento #131
A cat seaweed cut-out (erm, the original request was for a Hello Kitty but....evolved, ahem!! He he)


Bento #130
A pair of sweet onigri bunnies munching some veggies!! Ha ha

Bento #129
This is an ‘adult’ bento filled with small flowers (made with endamame and sakura dembura).

Bento #128

Another ‘adult’ bento with some simple carrot and seaweed cut-outs for decorations.

wow... another very impressive round of bentos. Especially like the rabbit onigiri.

So did you find out the difference between the white and pink packages of kamaboko? I've not tried the white ones, so have no idea.

Tks Ladies for comments :) We were laughing at how to eat it - backside, face or sides first!!

3lilangels, Yes I opened both of them but haven't used the white packet yet. Pink one has thin pink top/strip on the top, rest is white. The white packet is only white - wish they sell all pink just like some Japanese bentos I see. But I guess can use in lieu of cheese for faces, etc.
