Sushi Bento Boxes

We had a lovely holiday in Sinagpore for 1 week and  we 've just returned back home.Yesterday we went to the big supermarket here  to buy some  food .
For our lunch we bought Sushi Bento boxes and Sashimi (sliced raw
fish). I prepared salad and Miso soup as we've  missed the vegetables.
As for these  kinds of  sushi ( we call 'Nigiri sushi" which is consisting of a slice of Sashimi on a small oval-shaped ball of boild rice ) ,normally we don't prepare at home . We prefer to eat outside or buy them as we need many  kinds of sashimi for this  sushi. The sushi rice of takeaway is harder than it at a reatautant
Hand- rolled  sushi is very  popular at home  as it is easier to be prepared  and chilren also can make  it by themselves .Moreover we can add in  anything like sausages ,boiled corns , a can of tuna,
 , chicken , salad . ..and so on. Rolled sushi with Nori (laver)
, Inari-sushi (wrapped with deep fried tofu) , Tirashi-sushi ( mixed sushi)
are also  preapred at home.
My husband likes   Mackerel sushi  the most which nowadays seldom people make at home.

Even  disposable trays below we make them nicely just like art as we don't like simple trays when we spread dishes on the table.How considerate we are on these kinds of small things..!

Top one is the  Kaisen (sea food)sushi with crab meat ,salmon roe , sashimi  and egg (598yen)
Nigiri sushi cost 298 yen each.The small packet is Soy sauce.Wasabi is already spread.
These trays only for sushi have  divisions to fix it.
Kanpachi( one kind of yellowtail )480yen
This tray  for sashimi  also  has divisions with a slant
てまえmeans "this side"

Today I prepared Inari-sushi with brown rice.
I make Mixed sushi first and hold .

This is Mackerel Sushi I made for him!
