I finally got around to making another bento. I have been meaning to for a long time but it just didn't seem to get done. I am so out of practice this bento took me a half hour or more to prepare. But it was worth it.
I included some of my favorites - chicken teriyaki, sauteed cocktail wieners and my most favorite of all, a tamagoyaki (egg cake). I also included some peppers, onion & carrots cooked in soy sauce & mirin and a cucumber pickle. I placed half an umeboshi plum on my rice. This was my very first umeboshi. It was very salty but tasty in its way.
I put the bento in a recycled take-out container as I could not lay my hands on an "official" bento box. The only problem was I could not pack it quite tight enough to prevent any shifting around so I had to carry it carefully to prevent it becoming "messy".
I hope it does not take me so long to make my next bento. This was fun . . . and tasty!!!
