My very first bento

  • Feb. 10th, 2007 at 3:01 PM



Well here it is: my very first bento meal. I had just received a slew of stuff in the mail that I had ordered through ebay, and I couldn't wait to try out the onigiri molds. The molds were super easy to use and I made my onigiri with a kimchee and mackerel stuffing. Very spicy and very delish! I'm still experimenting with color and how to balance portions, but I think it went off really well for a first try. I can't wait to get my other bento boxes though. This one is super cute and efficient, but I think the colors will pop better against a non-opaque background.

Contents: two nori wrapped onigiri stuffed with sauteed kimchee and mackerel, baby carrots with ranch dressing in Pooh container, cherry tomatoes, panda cookies, and a flower kiss hard candy.
