Please select your preferred language from the settings tab. Early Morning, October Warming up on the floor heating We were just talking about how hot it was, but lately it’s gotten much cooler all of a sudden. Looks like a new winter will arrive before I even put away my winter gear, haha How are things in your area? Please take care of yourselves, whether you’re dealing with the heat or the cold(´∀｀） Such a hard lotus root… I startled Gon-chan who was right at my feet. Sorry, Gon-chan(>_<) He went over there(TдT) Alright, let's get back to it. I'm gonna make skulls out of lotus root. ...like, from here, or from here. It's for Halloween♪ Shave off the edges to get it closer to a skull shape. My little batch of scary cuties is ready for Halloween♪ Soak the rest in vinegar water to preserve them. And I'll use the chopped pieces for the meatballs tomorrow(*'v'*) Today, I'm not making the usual octopus sausages, I'm making octopus ghosts♪ When they heat up, the "arms" should open up like this. I'm making the rest into octopus sausages, and they're going straight to the freezer. The last item is the radish. I'm using a jack-o'-lantern shaped cutter to punch them out. I’m watching you… The main dish for today is chicken cutlets. I’m using chicken breast for a healthier option. Salt and pepper Let’s fry the lotus root skulls first. Dip them in the batter. Then, into the panko breadcrumbs. Gotta let 'em breathe. And these holes are perfect for grabbing with chopsticks lol Next up is the mozzarella cheese. And chicken katsu The last ones are the eggs I boiled yesterday. I'm scared of those eggs exploding. So quick deep-fry at high heat(/>_<)/ Enough! I forgot to film it, but I also fried the "octopus ghosts" and put them on skewers with cheese. To finish, I'm making Namul using carrots and purple cabbage for the Halloween colors🎃🧹 Soy sauce 1/2 tbsp, Chicken bouillon powder 1/2 tsp, Sesame oil 1.5 tbsp, Salt, Sesame Oh, I totally forgot to salt and rub the carrots and cabbage beforehand(ﾟ∀ﾟ;) Ah well, never mind♪ Kabosu citrus Squeezing it over the cutlet makes it taste refreshing♪ Mayonnaise Sliced cheese and nori seaweed Almost done, nya🐾 Shall we have a little taste? tonkatsu sauce and sesame Ready～♪ Hanako just changed the layout a bit. No Bento Day Time for lunch... where to go? Hmm, maybe an açaí bowl would be a good healthy choice. I gained some weight over the holidays, so no high-calorie food for me...(￣∇￣;) My daily sweet interruptions lol EMPORIO cafe&dining The açaí bowl here is delicious, and it's loaded with fruit. Wait, what about the açaí bowl?! I guess I ordered this subconsciously... It's Omurice with Mentaiko(a spicy cod roe) Cream Sauce. Perfectly fluffy and creamy egg(ﾉ*>∀<)ﾉ♡ So good～(*´ω｀*) Oops! I almost missed it! Today, I'm making yakisoba with the leftover veggies from the fridge. Onion Cabbage These bell peppers are the stars of my Halloween decor. Let’s see… which ones are the cutest? You’re all so different, and that’s what makes you wonderful(´∀｀） I’ll take you guys♪ But hey, not being picked doesn’t mean you’re not good enough. There’s always a place where you can shine. (In the yakisoba later 😋) Asparagus These tips are for the decor, and the rest is going into the yakisoba. The carrot is going to be a jack-o'-lantern. Yes, gointo the yakisoba. And the extra batch. First, stir-fry the veggies unseasoned to keep the moisture out. Isn't this too much? I misjudged the quantity again... Anyway take them out once. Look! There are still some bean sprouts that couldn't fit... My portion control is always off(￣∇￣;) Then stir-fry the pork. Salt and pepper minced ginger and garlic Powdered sauce mix that comes with the yakisoba kit. I'm making three servings, but I'll just use one packet now to pre-season the pork. Just a little bit more to go♪ When the noodles are loose, put in the other two packets of sauce mix and stir it all up. I added extra seasoning because of my chaotic veggie math(￣∇￣;) Oyster sauce and Worcestershire sauce Nice crunch and fantastic flavor (*¯ч¯*) One final easy decor♪ Just fill them with the leftover mac salad from last night. Add the cheese, then bake it in the toaster until it browns. Blanch the asparagus and the jack-o'-lantern carrots. Yaksoba is not complete without onigiri. Pop quiz! Can you guess what I'm making? That's right! The answer was a little black cat, meow Whoops! Let’s create their faces using nori seaweed and sliced cheese. Pickled red ginger My last Halloween bento challenge is making Jack-o'-lanterns made from pie crust and sausages ♪ I've made mummy dogs several times with the same ingredients, but this is my first time trying the Jack-o'-lanterns. It's perfect in my head, but... I'm just hoping my skills don't betray me, ha Wrap the sausage with three strips of pie crust. Trim off the extra. Pretz(A Japanese savory pretzel stick) STAB! Pumpkin seed Hmm, does this pass as a pumpkin? I think better make a mummy dog ... you know, just in case the Jack-o'-lanterns don't work out. Brush on the egg yolk. My pastry brush is permanently missing. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 15 to 20 minutes. By the way, I found an induction-compatible sandwich maker and got it immediately(*´∀｀*) I'm not making hot sandwiches today, I'm trying to grill sausages in it! Gotta get those perfect grill marks♪ Speech Bubble Egg Mold I totally forgot I even owned this. Boil eggs right next to it. Welcome back J...Jack-o'-lantern...? Looks more like a flower... right? Anyway the speech bubble egg is finished♪ But it's a bit too big for today's bento, so Iet's cut it in half. For the boiled eggs, let’s make egg salad. 2 tbsp mayonnaise, A little soy milk or milk, Salt, Black pepper All the hot dog toppings are prepped☆ For one of them, I'm making Yakisoba-pan using leftover yakisoba♪ It's a yummy carb-on-carb creation often seen in anime and manga♡ I used to get this all the time at the school store back in my school days. It's basically just noodles. No meat, no veggies, and that's Yakisoba-pan lol Next one♪ Spread butter. I made meatballs with the leftover lotus root scraps from last night, and now I’m gonna turn it into a Halloween decoration later♪ Kiwi Forget the Jack-o’-lantern this decoration was meant to be a flower from the start, aha Just rearranging things a little... Perfectly ready? I'll do a final inspection🐾 Thanks for always helping me. It’s that time of year when a familiar face sneaks into my bento box… Face... sliced cheese, Eyes and mouth... sesame, Pattern... nori seaweed, Cheeks... ketchup Yes, it’s No-Face Ah... Ah... Aonori (green laver) Your amazing pattern is perfect, let’s dress you up as a ghost, Kiwi👻 Ketchup and mustard Knead, knead, knead Click click clikck I handled the whole workload for all of us. So have a cozy weekend～🐾
