It looks like your palate can stand up to the spicy zing, noted for future bento! <br /><br />Thanks so much for the support and commentary, it&#39;s the only way I get to improve! I&#39;m glad you enjoyed lunch I promise more to come.Ironjackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16441887771747701206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927660602752656227.post-87006518288871404532009-09-01T14:24:57.957-05:002009-09-01T14:24:57.957-05:00Sweet heat! <br /><br />Kudos on the delicious Eaters Favorites bento. Given that I didn&#39;t get to enjoy until dinner I can also commend you on the longevity of the lunch.<br /><br />Salmon - I make a mean miso-glazed black cod and I thought the flavors were perfectly balanced here.<br /><br />Quinoa - Revelatory. I have a hard time getting any flavor in to quinoa but the shitakes came through beautifully in yours.<br /><br />Hot and sour soup - my favorite, consistency sans cornstarch much appreciated - thanks dad.<br /><br />Green curry coconut rice balls - nice but could have gone for more curry - lost it in the sriracha.<br /><br />Fig - prosciutto only thing that didn&#39;t hold up til dinner - peeled and ate the fig - which still retained some of the other flavors. Lovely complement to cool the palate.<br /><br />Many thanks again, Iron Jack.Justinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17122043684161081279noreply@blogger.com
