the miso experiment

kimchee and rice

miso pork, edamame

yay! the shmantz bento week is over! j/j. maybe he will try again soon. to make him feel better, i let him choose what kind of rice he wanted 2day. he chose plain rice with kimchee. delicious.

the miso pork is from mom's bento book. it wuz my first time cooking with miso, so i wuz a little nervous. i bought red miso instead of white miso. i figured the red would go well with the pork and beef recipes i have. i think white would go better with fish recipes. you know, kinda like wine. pfffft. i just made that up. maybe i should've called mom for advice. but i really enjoyed the pork! almost as good as dad's miso beer chicken. heehee.

all the japanese moms seem to skewer edamame instead of sending their kids off to skool with the pods, so i decided to try it out. plus, i got to make use of some new skewers. shmantz and i got these from shirokiya way back in april. i think it looks a lot nicer this way, ya?
