Santa Claus Bento for Christmas instructions
- Wrap the salmon in plastic and microwave. Remove the bones and the darkened red meat, add 1/2 teaspoon of shiro-dashi and grind into a paste. (If this is too much work, just use readymade salmon flakes.).
- Add the rice to the salmon paste, and make one large chestnut shaped onigiri, and a tiny onigiri for the nose..
- Put a piece of kitchen parchment paper on the large onigiri, and draw the beard..
- Slice the hanpen 2-3mm thick. Using the paper from Step 3 as a pattern, cut a beard out of the hanpen..
- Cut out a pompom, hat brim, and Santa's eyebrows in the hanpen. Make the hat brim longer than needed..
- Peel the red part of the crab sticks. Wrap 1 piece around the pointy triangular part of the onigiri to form the hat. Cut the other piece out to make the cheeks..
- Stick the hanpen pieces on the onigiri. Add nori seaweed circles for the eyes..
- Add the nose from Step 2 and it's done!.
- Adding a mouth made out of nori is cute too. (I ran out of time...).
- "Moepi" made a big one for a Christmas party. Cute!.
- My daughter, who's in 2nd grade, made this by herself..
