After that long trip in Yakushima ( 2 more postings to come!), the Missus concocted a “simple” traditional bento keeping the calories in mind!

Therefore the three nigiri/rice balls were of medium size, one with umeboshi/Japanese pickled plum and a little black sesame, and two with fried salted salmon. She added a few cornichons.

As for the “garnish”, she included boiled brocoli, fresh pimento, a plum tomato, and her excellent Tamagoyaki/Japanese Omelette. She had added sweet pork miso to the eggs, thus creating a new and interesting taste.

No need for dessert!

        I’m an American who’s lived here in the UK for about 12 years. I discovered you one day a while ago, while surfing the things that came up under ‘Japan’ and subscribed immediately!

  6. That looks like a great meal to have while traveling…or while not traveling! Packed just so, healthy and with nice variety. I like the Missus’ use of sweet pork miso in the tamago. I hope she made you more than one bento!

      The Missus usually make a bento on Mondays and Tuesdays on a regular basis, and a light one on Fridays when I teach at university!
