Flat vegetable flowers are great for dressing up your bento to finish up.
Put them on broccoli, on rice, on sandwiches, etc… anywhere you want. It adds a nice finishing touch and will definitely cutify your bento.

When I made my first Totoro bento, I used bonito flakes for his gray body color, but it didn’t look quite right. And I thought, “What food is gray?” The first food that came to my mind was konnyaku. I searched web for “Totoro made out of konnyaku”, but to my surprise I couldn’t find anyone using konnyaku for Totoro… so of course, I had to try it.

This isn’t a bento, but since it’s anime-inspired food, I’ll post it along with my usual bento blog anyway.
If you’re a fan of Laputa: Castle in the Sky by Studio Ghibli, you’re probably drooling now.

When I was looking at the pictures of Piggy & GIR bento, I thought that if I had made the meatball into mini-moose (also from Invader ZIM), it would’ve been perfect… And I made Japanese style hamburg (non-bun hamburgers) the night before, so I decided to try it.
