How do you assemble a bento box?

I've always been fascinated with Japanese culture and, being the cook in my house, i wanted to try making bento boxes for my sisters and i for school. is there a specific way to do it? and are there any recipes anyone can give me? thanks!How do you assemble a bento box?
What a coincidence! I'm learning about Bento boxes, too! Let me tell you a little bit of what i know; comparisions between takeout, and homemade bento.



Physically, i think you'd need lunch pales with separate compartments, if you want to do it traditionally. I saved my boxes from when i ordered bento as takeout.

Anyway, if you want to go traditional, that could be a bit hard. The bento boxes i've had were things that were made fresh.

They consisted of:

__Teriyaki chicken

__Miso Soup

__Salad

__Steamed rice

__Veggie Tempura

__ Califoria Roll sushi

__Shrimp sushi (optional)



Carrying cooked shrimp around school may not be a good idea. Also, Tempura is now made for travel either. It's suppose to be eaten soon after deep-fried, or it will get soggy in less than 10 minutes.



So, i have found a website for light reading on the subject for Bento box cooking. I can't go through the whole thing, but the link is in my sources. Good luck to you!How do you assemble a bento box?
