Instructions to make Gimbap: Korean Nori Seaweed Rolls:
- Mix the ○ ingredients into the rice. Alternatively, you can add the sesame oil and salt to the rice before cooking it, and add the sesame seeds to the cooked rice.
- Make the fillings ready. You can use whatever you like or have on hand. I made these with lots of filling. Cut the takuan pickles into 6-7 mm thick slices. Season the eggs with sugar and salt, make tamagoyaki (rolled omelette) and cut into 6 to 7 mm slices.
- De-seed the cucumber and slice lengthwise thinly. Cut the carrot into about the same size, boil then stir fry in a little oil, and season with a little salt. Blanch the spinach, refresh in cold water, squeeze out well and mix with a little sesame oil and salt.
- Cut the fish sausage into 6 to 7 mm thick pieces too. (If you're using crab sticks, split them in half lengthwise.) If you're using thinly sliced beef chop it up and stir fry it, and season with sugar and soy sauce or yakiniku sauce. You can use ground beef too. Squeeze out the kimchi lightly.
- Spread a sheet of nori seaweed as thinly as possible with rice. Be sure not to put any rice on the edges, which will overlap.
- Add the fillings, and roll up fairly loosely.
- When the rolls are made, brush the surfaces with a little sesame oil. Put some salt on your hands and spread it lightly over the surface too. Sprinkle on some sesame seeds to taste. If possible, keep them wrapped in plastic wrap for a while to allow the rolls to soften and meld.
- Cut into about 1 cm wide (rather thin) slices and they're done! Wipe your knife with a moistened kitchen towel while cutting in order to have nice looking slices. (This is a no-kimchi version.)
- This is a kimchi version. Kimchi and rice together is sooo good!
Foods That Make You Happy
Many of us have been conditioned to believe that comfort foods are terrible and to be avoided. Sometimes, if the comfort food is a high sugar food or another junk food, this is true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be altogether nourishing and it’s good for you to eat them. Several foods actually do elevate your mood when you eat them. If you seem to feel a little bit down and you’re in need of a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.
Eggs, you might be amazed to discover, are fantastic at combating depression. Just make sure that you do not toss the egg yolk. The yolk is the most crucial part of the egg iwhen it comes to helping elevate your mood. Eggs, the egg yolk in particular, are high in B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be fantastic for lifting up your mood. This is because these vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that dictate your mood–run better. Try to eat an egg and feel happier!
Put together a trail mixfrom various seeds and nuts. Your mood can be raised by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and so on. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that tells your brain how you feel all the time. The more of it you have, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Nuts, along with raising your mood, can be a great protein source.
Cold water fish are great for eating if you are wanting to battle depression. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all high in omega-3s and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that raise the quality and the function of your brain’s grey matter. It’s the truth: eating tuna fish sandwiches can actually help you battle your depression.
Some grains are truly great for repelling bad moods. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all really great for helping increase your happiness levels. They help you feel full as well which can really help to better your mood. Feeling hungry can be terrible! The reason these grains are so good for your mood is that they are not difficult for your stomach to digest. You digest these foods faster than other things which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel more pleasant, mood wise.
Green tea is excellent for moods. You knew it had to be in here somewhere, right? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have found that this specific amino acid can basically stimulate brain waves. This will improve your brain’s concentration while at the same loosening up the rest of your body. You already knew green tea could help you feel better. And now you know green tea can help raise your mood also!
Now you realize that junk food isn’t necessarily what you have to eat when you want to help your moods get better. Try a couple of of these suggestions instead.
