The reason why Japanese bento can be made beautifully also has to do with the Japanese diet. As a result, their bento is mainly cold, fast food is processed directly at the supermarket, and there is basically no soup. This is something we Chinese can't learn. At least many people's intestines can't stand it. Since ancient times, Japanese people like to eat cold food, such as sushi, sashimi and onigiri. If you go to a restaurant, you will be given a glass of ice water first in winter and summer, and the Japanese think hot water is hard to drink. This is a result of their eating habits. Their lunches are mainly cold and don't need to be heated up for lunch.

If you go to a Japanese supermarket, you will find that you can be a Japanese chef even if you don't know how to cook. Because the refrigerator has fried rice, dumplings, fried chicken, potato pancakes. Everything, the operation method is very detailed. Most housewives process these instant foods directly and put them into bento boxes. Putting some small decoration can make a cute bento. And all these fast foods are represented in China as high additives and unhealthy. After the above analysis, there is no deep frying among Japanese, so there will be no soup crumbs. This kind of bento is easy to carry and clean. But if we pay attention to the color, aroma, etc., we may find it hard to swallow such food.

The way to make Japanese onigiri is to prepare 1 bowl of rice, 2 slices of seaweed, a few sesame seeds and a pinch of salt. The first step is to cook a pot of rice. Unlike sushi, onigiri are made with hot rice, which is soft and sticky. When making rice, it's best to choose northeastern rice because Japan is still very particular about eating rice. Northeastern rice has the most similar flavor to Japanese rice, and rice that is too fluffy is not suitable for onigiri. Second, take a small bowl and tear the seaweed into small pieces and add them to the bowl. Add some salt and sesame seeds. If you have meat loaf at home, put some in too. Put the freshly cooked rice into the bowl while it is still hot and mix well. The third step is to shape the rice into circles or triangles. This step must be done while hot. Round shape is good to pinch. Let's talk about how to pinch triangular rice balls. Before kneading the rice balls, dip your hands in a little water to prevent the rice from sticking to your hands. Interlace your upper and lower hands. The lower hand is a little flat. The upper hand is triangular. Squeeze the rice ball hard. Then change the direction of the rice ball and squeeze the upper and lower hands together a little more. In this way, the triangular-shaped rice ball will be squeezed a few times. Step 4: After kneading the rice ball, you can cut out cute decorations from seaweed and place them on the rice ball. A cute rice ball is ready. If you have sausage at home, grilled meat can also be clipped into rice balls, very delicious.

To make rice balls, use soft sticky rice. Loose rice does not form easily and is not suitable for making rice balls. When kneading the rice balls, make sure you dip your hands in some water while they are hot, otherwise the rice will be too sticky to form. You can add some small ingredients you like or you can knead rice balls with fried rice. It tastes great. Be skillful when kneading the triangular rice balls. The bottom half is slightly flat and the top half is in the shape of a hill. Knead it once to turn the rice ball into a face, and knead it 3-5 times to make it.
