Meat-Wrapped Soft-Boiled Eggs for Bentos
I thought that meat-wrapped eggs might be as good as meat wrapped onigiri, so I gave them a try. They were really good! They were great in a bento! (Only use very fresh eggs.)
If you don't flour the eggs twice at Steps 2 and 4, the meat will come off them.
I recommend using large pieces of thinly sliced beef such as sukiyaki beef. If you have small pieces, try squeezing them tightly on the eggs as if you are making onigiri (rice balls) to make them stick. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Ponie

Japanese-style Meat Rolls with Fish Sausage - For Bentos Japanese-style Meat Rolls with Fish Sausage - For Bentos
I came up with this for a recipe contest.- Cut to a size that fits your bento boxes. I used pork slices that were left over from when I made shabu-shabu.- Very thinly sliced meat for shabu-shabu is best because it's easy to roll and keeps its shape.- When you add the flavourings, cook quickly on medium-strong to strong heat. The meat should ideallybe just a bit charred.- For the shiro-dashi, you can use stock granules dissolved in hot water. Recipe by Makitoin -
Dashi-Flavored Eggs For Bento Dashi-Flavored Eggs For Bento
This is a dish we make often at our home.My mother taught me a different recipe to make sweetened atsuyaki eggs, but this one is also one of our favorites.There are two ways to roll the egg: A. To roll it up from the start, or B. Don't roll at the start but rather gather it to the sides to cook. If you'd like the cross-section to look nice, try the former way. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 -

For Character Bentos: Easy to Make a Hard Boiled Egg - "Nameko Saibai Kit" For Character Bentos: Easy to Make a Hard Boiled Egg - "Nameko Saibai Kit"
After talking with my Nameko-loving-son on how to make the Nameko look more shiny for days, we came up with this.The skewer and chopstick technique used to brown half the egg was a borrowed idea from a summer research project making plastic food.Thanks to this, we were able to make a realistic and cute bento!Be careful not to break the egg white by pressing too hard when shaping the egg!Other than preventing the cup from spilling over, the skewer and chopsticks helps keep the egg from touching the bottom or leaning on the side of the cup. When the egg is touching the cup, it doesn't color the egg very well.If you're making it for a bento, it's better to shave off more (on the back) so it won't stick to the lid. For 1 nameko.

For Bentos: Chikuwa and Quail Egg Teriyaki For Bentos: Chikuwa and Quail Egg Teriyaki
There are usually 8 to 10 eggs in a can of boiled quail eggs, so you won't be able to use it all up if you make 1-2 rolls for a regular bento. So why not make a big batch of these for a Sports Day festival bento!Do your kids get excited about quail eggs as mine do?Add the sauce in over low heat, and make sure to shake the pan back and forth.If you roll the quail eggs the day before (e.g. a big event like Sports Festival), you will be done in 5 minutes the day of.If you wrap these up with the yellow side of the chikuwa facing outward, then the rolls will not look very pleasant. Make sure to roll the browned side outwards! Lol. For 8 rolls. Recipe by Shijimi24 -

Pressed and Steamed Hard-Boiled Eggs for Osechi or Bento Pressed and Steamed Hard-Boiled Eggs for Osechi or Bento
This is a must for the Osechi I make every year. It's pretty, delicious, and more than anything else, it's easy.Pretty fancy for boiled eggs.It's also a favorite at our house on New Year's Eve.Note that the volume of egg white will be greater than the egg yolk, so you'll have to take note when adding the seasonings and when shaping them.When your making it so that the egg yolk sits lightly on top, there's no need to add flour and it still turns out great. The seasoning is Kansai-style, so it might be a bit sweet for some... adjust it to taste. Recipe by Momora
