This morning, I felt like a lapsed foodie: I burnt my figs
to a cinder (after I’d doused the pan in water I realised I should have taken a
photo!), didn’t feel like eating all of my porridge and struggled to fill my
bento. Admittedly today I used a larger box, so that was part of the problem!
Today’s lunch is mostly made up of leftovers, which gave me
time to make some cute little nori shapes.
I decided to go for a chequered effect, which is one of the
easiest ways to make a bento look fun. I still had a stuffed courgette left
over from the other day, and a bowl of sushi rice in the fridge, so I cut that
into pieces and alternated it with rice shapes made with my onigiri mould. Then
I used the moulds as a guide to cut matching shapes from a sheet of nori – I
scored the sheet with a sharp knife and did the rest with scissors.
In the final corner, instead of rice I’ve put my little
piggy pot, filled with salad dressing. The salad is just a colourful mixed leaf
affair from a bag.
Of course, I realised too late that I have run out of soy
sauce, so I will have to get some of that before lunch time. *sigh*
