For those of the uninitiated, creating a bento (boxed lunch) is much more than just putting pieces of food together. It requires a unique sense of knowing the right proportions for each dish, packaging it, and knowing which foods to use for the right season (so as not to make it spoil during the warmer months). But it also takes a lot of time to make. This cookbook focuses on the delicious creations of traditional Japanese cooking and the bentos that practically every businessman, OL, and child are known to devour when lunchtime hits. Many of these recipes focus on left overs frozen and prepared for a later meal, which are garnished with delicious side dishes, vegetables and even "Hinomaru bento rice" (a bed of rice with a sour plum resting on it, often used during World War II and still common today), making for quick and easy creations as developed by housewives and mothers all around Japan. Included are charts to help you determine the right proportions children, men, and women, sample weekly menus as created by some of the housewives that shared their dishes in the book and plenty of mouthwatering photos of the recipes such as karaage bento (Fried chicken bento), grilled pork with broccoli bento, omu rice bento with asparagus stalks and other side dishes with plums in red wine, noodle salads, soybean salads and more. This is the number one selling bento cook book in Japan, often receiving 4 star reviews from all customers who purchased the item. Written in its original language making a great study item as well!
