In fact, after the outbreak of the epidemic in May this year and I started working from home, I started to cook frequently. I cooked two meals a day. After cooking for 3 months, my cooking skills have made a great leap forward. It took two hours to cook a meal at the beginning, and it can be finished within an hour from washing and preparing vegetables to serving.

What about before May this year? I am completely zero, kitchen, art! Before the epidemic, my son's kindergarten held an off-campus teaching every month, and I had to bring my own lunch boxes. Every time I heard about the need for off-campus teaching, I felt like a bolt from the blue, and it would kill me! As an obsessive-compulsive mother, I personally can't buy imperial rice balls as my son's lunch (it's not bad, it's just that my obsessive-compulsive personality doesn't allow me to be like this), but I just thought of cooking. For the first two majors, on the day of off-campus teaching, I would get up at about 5:30 in the morning and start preparing lunch boxes. How does Zero Cooking prepare cute bento? OK! Trust me, handicapped can do it too!

Preparation: appropriate amount of rice, seaweed, cauliflower washed and cut into appropriate sizes, fresh shrimps are de-iced and rinsed slightly, garlic minced, okra (pressed under the rice ball, you can still see a little bit XD), cherries and apples washed

Before you start, please purchase a nori stamper and a variety of fruit and vegetable embossing molds. As long as you have these two tools, everything is ok for you!

The bento shared this time uses these two:

There is a rice ball mold and a nori expression stamper. Although there are only two nori expression stampers, they can be freely combined and matched to form various expressions.

Okay! Next, you can rest assured and easily get the cute off-campus teaching lunch!

Method: Cook rice first. (because the rice takes longer to cook)

Bring a pot of hot water to a boil, then add the cauliflower and scald it, remove it, sprinkle a little salt evenly, and let it cool for later use. Continue to cook the shrimp in the same pot of water. After the shrimp is cooked, let it cool and peel the shell for later use.

Use a peeler to peel off the head of the okra like a pencil, then cut it in half. Put a little oil in a hot pan, spread the cut surface of the okra (the flat side) on the pan, after the okra turns dark green and shrinks a little, add a proper amount of oil, add minced garlic and stir-fry together, add an appropriate amount of salt Season and stir fry until fragrant and ready to use

The rice is pressed into small rice balls with a mold (in fact, I think it is very convenient to wrap it in plastic wrap and shape), I am afraid that my son does not like to eat rice, so I added a little seaweed and fragrant pine, so there are some small rice balls. The fragrant pine particles make the expression of the seaweed a little unclear @@

Use the seaweed to press the desired expression (it is recommended to spread the seaweed expression on the plate, and then take the rice ball to stick it. I just used my hand to stick the seaweed expression on the rice ball, it is super difficult to paste!! It is difficult to position, It is easy to become a crooked face QQ)

Peel and slice the apple, use a vegetable and fruit mold to press out the desired shape, and soak it in salt water to delay oxidation and blackening.

Then all that's left is the platter! The cauliflower was stuffed on the side first, because my son’s bento is very deep and the rice balls are very small, so I used okra to put the bottom first, and then put the rice balls on top, so that it was just on the surface, and then the remaining space was neatly put in the peeled shrimp, Then put the cherries and apple-shaped slices in, and you're done!

If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. The ancients really had a thorough understanding of life! The most important thing about Zero Cooking Cute Bento is to buy a good rice ball mold, a seaweed pressing plate and a vegetable and fruit embossing mold first ! Then you will be invincible hahaha!
