Monaka-style Adzuki Bean Cracker Sandwiches With the Aroma of Pickled Plums and Shiso Leaves

A Japanese style snack made with crackers sandwiched with adzuki bean paste, shiso leaves and pickled plums.
I came up with these while eating Monaka (bean jam wafers).
Instead of sandwiching the crackers, you can top them with the bean paste to make canapes.Use as many shiso leaves as you like, but if you use too many, it may taste bitter.
You can make it without adding the powdered kanten in Step 2, but it holds together better if you put it in. For 6. Recipe by Karun

Easy! Refreshing Japanese-Style Sandwich: Shiso and Egg Easy! Refreshing Japanese-Style Sandwich: Shiso and Egg
I got so many shiso leaves every day that I didn't know what to do with them!So, I thought of this to use them up.Nothing really, I just recommend eating it before the scent goes away. If you make it in advance, the flavor weakens, so enjoy it immediately. If you have time, try grating the leaves! Black pepper interferes with the scent of the shiso, so please don't use it.

Onigiri Sandwiches Onigiri Sandwiches
Making onigiri rice balls every single morning takes so much time, so I always just sprinkle furikake seasoning. Then I thought I'd stock some in the freezer, since I store frozen rice anyway.If you match the size of the sandwiches to the size of your bento box, after you cut them you can store them just like that.

Pickled Plum & Cheese Chicken Tender Sandwiches ☆☆ Pickled Plum & Cheese Chicken Tender Sandwiches ☆☆
I thought up something healthier than fried cheese chicken tenders.Note: this is even easier to make if you use pre-cut baby cheese.Covering the chicken tenders with plastic wrap and smacking with a rolling pin to spread them out will be easier than cutting them open.I recommend cheese sandwiches for the kids, and pickled plum sandwiches for the adults.I like to eat these a little cold rather than freshly cooked so I often make them as a side dish for bentos.

Taiyaki-style Snacks (with a sandwich press) Taiyaki-style Snacks (with a sandwich press)
I wanted to eat freshly made taiyaki rather than frozen, so I thought of using my hot sandwich maker. There's no need to worry about adjusting the heat or anything, and they were easy to make.For 8 portions, you will need about 300 g of anko. You can freeze leftovers. Of course, using canned adzuki beans is a lot easier. The cooking time probably differs depending on the hot sandwich maker, so keep an eye on it. However if you open the lid too early, the batter may stick to it, so watch out for that. For 8 portions. Recipe by Yukirinrin cookpad.japan -
Easier Than Onigiri! Rice Sandwiches With Different Fillings Easier Than Onigiri! Rice Sandwiches With Different Fillings
My husband brings onigiri to work, and I wondered if I could pack them with more substantial fillings. So I made this on a whim and he said he had a chuckle when he ate them. I tried them myself and they were pretty good. My kids like them too.If you leave a gap in the middle of the nori, the sandwiches are easy to fold over.Hold the fillings in place with chopsticks to prevent them from moving when you fold the sandwich over.Small children may find these easier to eat if you cut each sandwich into thirds. The middle section is hard for them to eat, so the adults should eat them up.If you use sushi rice, they should taste like sushi rolls I think. For 2 per serving. Recipe by Yui mama cookpad.japan -
Cute ♪ Rilakkuma Styule Chocolate Sandwich Cookies Cute ♪ Rilakkuma Styule Chocolate Sandwich Cookies
I originally made these to give as a gift. ^^You can use a generic bear shaped cutter that's sold at a 100 yen shop. If you squish the cutter a little to distort it, it will become Rilakkuma shaped. You can use regular chocolate for the filling, but if you use a good quality couverture chocolate + fresh cream, it's even more delicious. Recipe by Mikkorin523 cookpad.japan -
Kansai-Style Egg Sandwich Kansai-Style Egg Sandwich
I got this idea from a TV program and recreated it since it looked delicious. Our family's style is to make these with demi-glace sauce instead of ketchup.I always feel like making this sandwich the day after we eat Western-style burgers with demi-glace sauce.This is very easy and delicious. I really recommend it!This sandwich has a better texture and is easier to load with fillings when it's toasted so that it's crispy on the outside but still fluffy on the inside. You can quickly prepare the toast while making the omelette ♪ It takes less than 5 minutes and makes a fabulous breakfast!Enjoy this sandwich while it's still warm.This sandwich tastes even better once it has been allowed to sit for a while so I recommend it for your lunch box too.

Crab Stick and Cucumber Sandwiches Crab Stick and Cucumber Sandwiches
I wanted to eat sandwiches made with Honey Mustard. I had crab sticks and cucumber in the refrigerator so I made the sandwiches.Pat dry the cucumber well, otherwise the sandwich will become soggy. Use as much honey mustard as you like.Water comes out of cucumber so these sandwiches may not be good as a packed lunch, so it's better if you eat them immediately.

*Matcha and White Chocolate Cookie Sandwiches* *Matcha and White Chocolate Cookie Sandwiches*
I thought that matcha and white chocolate must surely be perfect together. You can spread chocolate on the cookies too, but if you are giving them away as a present, having them too sticky is not good, so I put the chocolate inside like a sandwich.When the cookies bake, they turn brown rather than green, so after about 7 minutes, cover with aluminum foil. That way, they will keep their nice green colour. Use the leftover egg white in another recipe, such as Baked Meringue, or Tuiles. Recipe by Marimo1016 cookpad.japan -
