Turn your everyday meal into a great occasion meal
“When my kids were little, we made cute Tanabata decorations in kindergarten every year and brought them home. It’s now an annual tradition to decorate them and eat Tanabata-style food.
On Tanabata, which is often hot and humid, the children are very happy to eat cold and cooling soup.”(Etoni Mama)
The standard menu of one person and chilled soup becomes a cute occasion meal by using seasonal ingredients. Let’s do it right away!
2 Tanabata menus

2 bowls of rice, 1 grilled salmon, an appropriate amount of seaweed, 300 ml of soya milk, 2 tablespoons of miso, 3 tablespoons of dried bonito flakes, an appropriate amount of roasted sesame seeds, 3 packages of silken tofu, 3 cooked okra, 1 / 2 cucumbers, an appropriate amount of paprika, an appropriate amount of salmon
▼ How to do
Dissolve miso in soy milk, add dried bonito flakes, toasted sesame seeds, coarsely chopped cucumber, star-shaped yellow bell pepper (the rest also cut into small pieces), and chill in the refrigerator.
(1) Remove bones from grilled salmon and sprinkle on rice.
(2) Shape it into a ball shape, about two pieces on top of the tofu.
(3) Folded seaweed to make kimono and hair
(4) Cut out sliced cheese in a round and star shape. Add black sesame seeds to the round shape to make eyes, and add them to 3 together with the star shape.
(5) Cut out a round shape from the paprika, cut it in half and tie the opening.

2 bundles of somen noodles, 2 boiled quail eggs, appropriate amount of seaweed, 4 black sesame seeds (eyes), 2 white sesame seeds (nose), 1/2 bunch of mitsuba leaves, 7 green asparagus, appropriate amount of yellow paprika, appropriate amount of colorful vegetables for decoration, Appropriate amount of noodle soup
▼ How to do
(1) Boil the asparagus, cut it into strips from the root, make a hole, and tie through the three blanched leaves for 10 seconds.
(2) Tie the hair to the quail with seaweed, the eyes and nose with sesame seeds, and the mouth with red vegetables.
(3) Cut the cucumber into 3cm long cylinders. Pick the pasta and attach the quail (if the bottom of the quail is cut a little it will be easier to stick to the cucumber)
(4) Cut colorful vegetables into easy-to-eat pieces or cut them into star shapes
(5) Place the cooked and cooled somen on a plate, garnish with 1 to 4, and it’s done.
“The key to both is to refrigerate them thoroughly. If you’re a busy person, you can just cut colorful vegetables and add them without any decorations. Adults can enjoy the taste more more by adding spices or salt.” (Etoni Mama Mr Miss)
It will be a hot and humid Tanabata, but let’s look for Orihime and Hikoboshi in the night sky while enjoying the Tanabata menu.
