Rilakkuma and Kiiritoiri Bento

Today's Bento is my Come Back Bento in 2014. Hopefully the spirit of Bento-ing will always stay with me. ^.^

Rilakkuma and Kiiritoiri Bento is my daughter's request, so thanks for the idea. The Rilakkuma made from plain rice mixed with sweet soy sauce and I hand mould it. The details for the face is seaweed and cheese. The cute little bird, Kiiritoiri made from Tamagoyaki and the details for the face is seaweed and carrot for the beak. Inside the box are chicken teriyaki, kani salad, blanch broccoli, zucchini, and pink fish sausage as a flowers.

I seldom to make bento nowadays, so it took longer time for me to make it. I forgot which cutter and puncher I should use. But the result is Ok for me and my daughter loves it when she found out. I'm a happy mom!

Hello Kitty Tang Yuan

Yesterday was Winter Solistice Festival and I remember that I made this cute Hello Kitty Tang Yuen before. 

In my country, Indonesia, Tang Yuan is called "Ronde". The ingredients are glutinous rice flour and water, if we want the tang yuan to be colorful, we can add a food coloring into the paste. Usually I put peanut paste inside it too. There are 2 kinds of soup for this tang yuan: clear soup and brownish soup. The clear soup is made from water, sugar, ginger with pandan leaves and brownish soup is made from palm sugar, water, ginger with pandan leaves. For me, both are good and suitable for the rainy and cold season.

I didn't manage to make tutorial for my Hello Kitty Tang Yuan, but I will post the tutorial soon!

Little Twin Star

Do you still remember Little Twin Star? It is one of my favorite Sanrio's character when i was a kid. I made Kiki and Lala from leftover flour sheet used in Boots bento. Inside the box: potato and beef in sweet soy sauce ( the potato is underneath the beef ), broccoli, cauliflower and flower carrot.
