Sanshoku Bento 三色弁当


Sanshoku Bento (Three Color Bento) | Easy Japanese Recipes at JustOneCookbook.comSanshoku Bento is very similar to Soboro Bento which I had previously shared on Just One Cookbook.  The bento includes ground chicken seasoned with the slightly sweet soy sauce flavor, served on top of steamed rice with scrambled egg.  The only difference here is I have also included flaked salmon.  Because there are three colors, this bento is known as “Sanshosku (three-color)” Bento.

On previous day, dinner was:  Sanshoku Donburi
Sometimes I add one more color to enhance the looks of Soboro Don.  This time I defrosted and bake Japanese Salted Salmon from the freezer.  Once it’s cooled, I break up the salmon into flakes.  Now your third topping is ready.
