Furikake Keta Salmon Bento
Still going easy on the bento cooking -- and furikake salmon requires all of two steps: slather with kewpie, sprinkle with furikake, and fry! Okay, I guess that's 3 steps. But still, very quick and easy. I lay a few pieces of the salmon on some green lettuce, then tucked in a piece of steamed broccoli and a tiny cup of enoki mushrooms sauteed in shoyu and garlic. I added some raw carrot flower garnishes for color as well. As for the fruit, it looks like they're all dark red ones today: strawberry, black grapes and red plum. Even though this box is undivided, I keep the flavors separate with silicon cups and fresh lettuce "baran". These little forks are from my mom's flatware set. She gave them to me since they are so cute, easy for kids to handle and perfect for bento. Don't you agree?

ReplyDeleteoh - about my dining table - i'm not sure what kind of wood it was, but it's by an artist who uses reclaimed barn wood from vermont (he has a studio up there). i believe the wood in my table was used on a roof (that's why it's so weathered and has all those little nail holes). it's stained a lot darker than it was naturally.
Hi, Sheri! Long time no see! Hehehehe. Miss your blog so much :D. Hemmmm... that's totally a box of yum yum and freshness :D
ReplyDeleteFresh, beautiful and certainly delicious! I want one like this!
ReplyDeleteThat looks yummy!!! Love all of the fresh and colorful fruit too. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for all the sweet comments, you guys are the BEST! I think I have missed you more than the bento-making itself, haha!!
ReplyDeleteLil'chan, I use nori komi furikake, but you should use whichever is your favorite. I like all the nori pieces in this one.
ReplyDeleteThis looks wonderful! Do your kids have any troubles opening these boxes on their own?
ReplyDeleteFluteloop,
ReplyDeleteMy 7 yo can open it easily himself but my 3yo would definitely need help.
