I have trouble getting my rice to not be mushy, I try all different combos of rice and water and it is never good. I am using sweet rice I bought at a local Korean grocery store here in Montreal. Love your blog!!
LOVE this bento box set, but doubt I have much chance to win it, as I don’t do social media (much too invasive!!), so won’t earn any of the bonus entries. That said, I do love your web site and your recipes. As for what I find difficult about making a bento — pretty much everything, as I don’t do it very often, and thus it takes me a long time. However, the enjoyment of putting it together and then consuming it is well worth the effort. Thanks for your sharing, your creativity and your lessons and encouragement!
My biggest problem is getting up in enough time to put the bento box together as I sometimes get called to work at the last minute and it seems pointless to make a bento lunch if I’m not working that day.
The most difficult thing for me is to find the right mix of fibre, carbohydrates, and protein.

I find it most difficult to pack something hot. If it is leftovers, do I heat it up in the microwave before I pack it or after I pack it, right before it is eaten? I prefer NOT to use a microwave, so I can’t really pack something hot the night before to take to lunch the next day.
