A week in bento X: Bento 132 to 135
Jan. 16th, 2011 01:58 pmAnother week without posting ... So it's time for another summary!
Bento 132 - Rice, turkey and a Mutschel

Monday's bento: Rice, turkey, carrot-kohlrabi salad, a tangerine and a mini Mutschel. The orange bunny container holds a bit of butter for the Mutschel.
A Mutschel, by the way, is a yeast pastry that is unique to my hometown, Reutlingen. They are only available around Epiphany. I missed them a lot the past years when I wasn't at home during the time, and so I decided to make them myself this year. And of course I can't help making miniature versions for bento!
I actually did not eat this bento ... Because when I got on the bus that morning I dropped the box, and it opened and everything scattered all over the steps of the bus :(.




Bento 133 - Rice, salmon and two Mutscheln

Tuesday's bento: Rice, salmon, two Mutscheln, an egg flower and carrot-kohlrabi salad. Bunny container with butter hidden behind the egg flower.
Since I hadn't eaten the bento the day before I made almost the same again. This time I could eat it :p.




Bento 134 - De-constructed chicken sandwich

Wednesday's bento: Turkish bread, lettuce, rotisserie chicken, tomato and cucumber slices.
To avoid that the bread got mushy over night (and so it looked prettier) I just put everything in the box separately and then assembled it at meal time. That worked well ^^.

Bento 134 - Yakisoba, Mutscheln and tangerine

Thursday's bento: Yakisoba with bacon and vegetables, two Mutscheln and about one and a half tangerine in slices.
Yakisoba has become such a bento staple for me. It's easy to make, it's tasty even when cold and I also get to have some of it for dinner :p.


No bento on Friday because I wasn't feeling well, so I had no energy to cook.

Die Form kriegt man, indem man eine Teigkugel leicht plattdrückt, achtmal einschneidet und die Zacken etwas rauszieht. Dann wird oben ein Quadrat eingeschnitten (das muss ich das nächste Mal noch etwas besser rausbilden) und ein Kränzchen drumgelegt. Klingt erst kompliziert, ist aber einfacher, als ich gedacht hätte!
