 This
box is closer to the traditional Japanese bento format
than most of my lunches. Close enough to the right ratio
of the various bits (rice,
vegetable, protein, fruit), and I've even put the pickled
plums in the rice. Well, except there's two instead
of one. By accident I bought koume instead of umeboshi,
so instead of soft pickled plums (which are actually
apricots) I ended up with grape-sized, hard pickled
plumricots. They taste the same, but you can't squeeze
out the pits, tear 'em up, and mix the bits with the
rice, so I included two.
On the non-rice side I have zucchini &
onion stir-fry, sauteed beef
& mushrooms which I cooked together instead
of making them separate as usual (I covered & simmered the
mushrooms until they got juicy, then added the
beef and stir-fried it the rest of the way), and some
apple.
Wanna talk
about it?
