Directions

  1. 1

    Lightly blanch the komatsuna and cut into about 3 cm pieces. Julienne the carrot and blanch it quickly in the same water used for the komatsuna until tender.

  2. 2

    Drain the komatsuna and carrot thoroughly and place in a bowl. Add the ★ seasonings (1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp mentsuyu, and 1 tbsp white sesame seeds) and mix well.

  3. 3

    Divide the remaining portions into silicone cups and arrange in a storage container for freezing. When added directly to your bento box, it will reach the perfect texture by lunchtime.

  4. 4

    For smaller portions, you can add bean sprouts to increase the quantity. Note: this variation cannot be frozen, but it's quick and easy to prepare.

Tips

You can estimate the seasoning amounts by eye. Add plenty of white sesame seeds for a fragrant and delicious flavor. For adults, a little minced garlic is also a great addition.
