Butteryaki Salmon Bento

I have been meaning to make this kind of bento for some time now. I saw the simple recipe for butteryaki salmon on Sheri's site, Happy Little Bento. It is a very simple recipe, and I added a bit of grated fresh ginger when adding the shoyu at the end of the process. I ate this bento at home on a weekend, because my coworkers have real issues with fish at work. I would have eaten this cold, so I wouldn't have made the microwave all fishy with my meal, but still, I thought it best to avoid the wrath of my coworkers. They sure can raise a stink (pun intended)!

In this bento: steamed edamame, rice with furikake seasoning (my first time trying furikake and it is so good!), a few carrots, a radish, and a piece of butteryaki salmon with a nori star. This was a smaller bento, but everything was so tasty that I really enjoyed it.

  1. Love it! Haven't had co-workers in awhile but I can imagine the breakroom battles. Enjoy your delicious lunch at home then - their loss! Nice to see your local bento again Michelle, and glad you liked it! ^_^

  5. Hi Cele! I usually get my edamame at either Trader Joe's, my local Asia Mart, or Whole Foods. They sure do make it easy to pack bento lunches.
