The Nightmare Before Christmas Halloween-Themed Charaben

• 1 Plain cooked rice
• 1 Salt for rice ball
• 1 Your favorite ingredients (Note: Since these will be used for the face parts, red ingredients such as ume paste, salmon flakes, or mendaiko seasoned cod roe might be too grotesque)
• 1 Red sausage

1. Form the slightly cooled rice into a ball.
2. A slightly thick and flat oval makes a good shape.
3. Cut the nori seaweed parts with scissors.
4. Make one of the eyes a little smaller than the other.
5. Make the nose holes slightly long and tear-shaped.
6. Make three long, thin lines, with one forming a slight curve, to compose the mouth.
7. With the leftover nori, cut short lines in irregular lengths and decorate the mouth as shown.
8. For the spider wiener, make a head as you would for a crab, but cut ten legs, then fry.
9. I didn't have red rice, so I fried an egg and created the shape with a cup to make this character bento.
