March 3rd is Hinamatsuri ♡

A day to pray for the healthy growth and happiness of girls, "Hinamatsuri" ♡

Many brides might say, "When I was small, I looked forward to decorating the hina dolls and eating chirashi sushi every year!"

Although I’m no longer a "little girl," enjoying seasonal events at home is a lovely way to spend each day ♡

Even if you don’t have a cute daughter yet, you want to celebrate Hinamatsuri with your husband, right? ♡

If he sees you cherishing this traditional event, he will surely think, "I’m glad I married such a wonderful woman," and "She seems like she’ll be a good mother"＊

In this article, I will introduce some wonderful 'Hinamatsuri meals' that you can make at home!

This year, Hinamatsuri falls on a Sunday. How about preparing a meal with a little more thought than usual?

The classic dish for Hinamatsuri is "barazushi" ♡

It’s just placing your favorite ingredients cut into small pieces on top of vinegared rice, but it looks so cute and colorful＊

If you also pay attention to the plate, the Hinamatsuri vibe will be even stronger♩

I found an adorable chirashi sushi called "polka dot chirashi sushi"!

It's an easy microwave recipe where you just place cucumbers, ham, tomatoes, and cheese on top of vinegared rice ♡

By the way,

☑ Chirashi sushi is when the ingredients are placed on top of vinegared rice

☑ Barazushi is when the ingredients are mixed into the vinegared rice

☑ Kaisen don is when the ingredients are placed on white rice

That's it＊

Round small "temari sushi" is also a perfect and colorful recipe for Hinamatsuri ♡

It’s bite-sized, so you can enjoy various flavors♩

Adding small "cup chirashi sushi" to your usual menu is also recommended ♡

The male doll is made from cucumber, and the female doll is made from crab sticks♩

Arranging onigiri in a character style to look like the male and female dolls is also cute ♡

Making hearts from tomatoes and cherry blossoms from ham is such a great idea♩

The ends of the maki sushi are styled as Hello Kitty & Daniel-kun ♡

It requires advanced skills to arrange the cut parts of the roll sushi in a Hinamatsuri style, but just attaching a tiny bit to the ends seems manageable＊

Finally, I’d like to introduce the Hinamatsuri cake ♡

They cut a store-bought roll cake and arranged it into a tower, adorned in a Hinamatsuri style♩

This way, you only need to arrange what you bought cutely, making it easy for those who aren't great at cooking＊
