BENTO: The Japanese burrito

27 03 2008

Lunch 3-27

I tend to look at maki rolls the same way I do burritos - anything goes. As long as it’s in my fridge, it’s fair game. I made JJ a ‘club sandwich’ maki roll for his bento with rolled up deli turkey slices and mayo. Mine is a sort of pseudo-California roll, sans avocado (which kind of takes out the California part - oh well), with crab and assorted veggies and herbs.  It’s handy eating, though perhaps a little less ‘rustic’ than the noble burrito.   Click through the pic for details, as per usual.

With this lunch, I am offically done with the duck, quiche, and Juliet tomatoes.  Next week will be a whole new kettle o’ something.  Not sure what yet.
