To begin with this recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can have hina matsuri sushi cake using 17 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Hina Matsuri Sushi Cake:
- Take 14 cm cake pan For the sushi rice:
- Prepare 1 cut Grilled salmon
- Prepare 2 eggs' worth Kinshi-tamago (thinly sliced omelet)
- Prepare 1 Shirasu (boiled and dried baby sardines)
- Take Note: The ● ingredients are for the dolls
- Get 2 ●Quail egg
- Prepare 2 sheets ●Seasoned nori
- Make ready 1 slice ●Ham
- Prepare 1 dash ●Cucumber
- Make ready 1 dash of pink ●Kamaboko
- Prepare 2 ●Toothpicks
- Take 1 Thinly sliced salt-water boiled carrot (a small amount)
- Make ready 1 slice Sliced cheese
- Prepare 1 thinly sliced Cucumber, rubbed with salt
- Get 3 slice Smoked salmon
- Make ready 1 Salmon roe
- Take 1 small amount Denbu (sweet pink-colored semi-dried fish flakes)
Instructions to make Hina Matsuri Sushi Cake:
- [Preparation] Lightly rub the cucumber with salt, then wash. Boil the quail eggs and carrot in salt water. Make sushi rice (I use rice + powdered sushi vinegar). Prepare the kinshi tamago (thinly shredded egg omelet). Grill the salmon and flake it.
- Line the cake pan with plastic wrap, then layer the kinshi tamago, sushi rice, salmon and shirasu and then the sushi rice into the pan while lightly pressing down with each addition. If you line the pan with the plastic wrap, the sushi cake won't break easily, but if the shape starts to break apart, it's easier to adjust if you put plastic wrap on top.
- Cut the ● ham in half. Then, as shown in the picture, lay on top of the ham, hanging a bit over the edge (to make the overlaid collar). Wrap the quail egg up. If you use a little bit of water on the nori, it will hold it together. Make slits in the ham and nori on the left and right sides so that the "kimono" can flare out as though the doll is sitting (bottom part of the picture).
- Lay out the decorating ingredients on a plate. [Flower] Use a straw as a cutter. [Roses] Make by wrapping up smoked salmon. [Dolls] Use toothpicks to secure the fans and crowns to the quail eggs. (When attaching them to the cake, you can push the toothpicks deep inside)
- Transfer the cake from Step 2 to a plate and remove the plastic wrap. Decorate with the ingredients from Step 4. Last, sprinkle the entire surface with the denbu to finish! There's no faces on the dolls, but if you like, it's fun to use nori to make the faces with your child!
Discover How to Boost Your Mood with Food
A lot of us have been trained to believe that comfort foods are not good and should be avoided. Sometimes, if the comfort food is a high sugar food or some other junk food, this is true. Otherwise, comfort foods can be really healthy and good for you. There are several foods that, when you consume them, could improve your mood. If you feel a little bit down and you need an emotional pick me up, try some of these.
Eggs, you may be amazed to discover, are terrific at fighting depression. You should see to it, though, that what you make includes the yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that is the most crucial in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, the egg yolks especially, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are great for helping to boost your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the components of your brain that dictate your mood. Eat an egg and feel a lot happier!
Make a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all good for raising your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” substance that our body produces and it tells your brain how you should be feeling all the time. The more serotonin in your brain, the better you’ll feel. Not only that but nuts, in particular, are a terrific protein source.
If you want to overcome depression, try consuming some cold water fish. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, and so on, they’re all high in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you overcome depression.
It’s easy to overcome your bad mood when you are eating grains. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all good for helping you feel happier. These foods can help you feel full for longer also, helping you feel better. Feeling hungry can truly bring you down! The reason these grains can improve your mood is that they are not difficult for your body to digest. They are easier to digest than other foods which helps kick up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, improves your mood.
Green tea is fantastic for moods. You just knew it had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is high in a particular amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies prove that this particular amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This helps improve your mental energy while simultaneously making the rest of your body more relaxed. You were already aware that green tea could help you feel so much healthier. Now you know that green tea can elevate your mood as well!
Now you can see that junk food isn’t necessarily what you should eat when you are wanting to help your moods get better. Try several of these instead!
