These "phantom bento boxes" are not available for general sale and are only served at catering events, such as on film sets. They are so unforgettable that they have many fans among models and celebrities. This book introduces how to easily make Chioben at home, focusing on the theme of "make-ahead" meals. It includes 30 types of "make-ahead bento boxes," as well as "main dishes" using meat, fish, and eggs, "side dishes" using vegetables, and "quick dishes" for busy mornings. It features a wealth of flavorful dishes using spices and aromatic vegetables, as well as visually appealing dishes. This book is packed with Chioben's unique ideas to make busy mornings easier, such as versatile seasonings that can be stored for a long time. ■ "Chioben's Bento Book" (132 pages / Published by KADOKAWA) This book contains 40 daily bento boxes for spring, summer, autumn, and winter, as well as special occasion bento boxes perfect for cherry blossom viewing and picnics. While retaining Chioben's unique flavors, the recipes are made as simple as possible. To ensure you can make them properly, the daily bento boxes only contain three side dishes per box. But with just those three side dishes, they are gorgeous & photogenic, and the flavors are so good you won't be able to stop eating! This book is packed with Chioben's "current" flavors.
