bon voyage article, two spring bentos

 
 


Hi friends! I was recently featured in Taiwan's Bon Voyage travel magazine in an issue celebrating  Japan in springtime. I was honored have a selection of my bentos shared with the Bon Voyage audience...thank you, Elsa C.! Speaking of spring, here are two recent lunches inspired by the colors and tastes of early spring (which has arrived in spirit if not yet by date here in Sonoma County). The first holds a crisp mini croissant, curried turkey and asparagus/sugar snap peas:

Pink, plum-flavored soba noodles make a pastel base for ginger stir-fried pork. Spicy radish sprouts, daikon "sakuras" and asparagus also for lunch:

Happy cooking!
