Rabbid Rabbids Bento

The first half of this bento was quite easy as all it required was some chili in the "lower" section and some delicious bitter melon and tofu stirfry. From then on it was a bit difficult because my brown/white rice mix, beet "fur" and tomato plunger kept slipping off. Don't even get me started on those ears and eyes! But I think it came out realy well and cute - I added sushi rice and put the onigiri Rabbid in the middle of the two foods on purpose to make it look even better.

Anais Snack To Eat

Get it? A nice snack to eat? I just wanted to show you what you can do with the second batch of vegan Sakura denbu. It was just a mixture of sticky rice, extra beet juice, a bit of water and extra sea salt for the head. Cook the rice with the liquid and once it's fully cooked then you can add the salt and denbu. Shape it and add on some banana, radish slices and nori and you're done! 

Enjoy!

Vegan Sakura Denbu Part 2

I had been planning to do this for a while now since my other sakura denbu wasn't dry or flaky enough. I wondered what I could use - the answer was coconut! I had two bags of coconut flakes, one that was sweetened and the other was unsweetened and untouched other than being dehydrated. I couldn't find the later and so I went for the sweetened.

(2nd Vegan Sakura Denbu Recipe)

• 1/4 cup Coconut Flakes (Unsweetened would probably be best)
• 1/4 tsp Sea Salt
• 1/2 tsp Mirin
• 1/2 tsp Beet Juice

(Directions)

• Combine all of the ingredients together in order and place through a food processor until it all turns into small flaky bits.
• Place the mixture into a cheesecloth and tie it very tightly.
• Once that is done- begin to wring out any liquid as best as you can. If it's not dry enough for you, you can dot across the "denbu" once you open up your cheesecloth.
• Use in your favorite bento mixture.
• Enjoy!
