Instructions to make Easy Yatsuhashi Sweets Made with Dango Flour:
  1. These are the only ingredients you need to prepare!
  2. Start by mixing the ○ ingredients. Then mix the ◎ ingredients. Mixing them first will prevent lumps!
  3. Add lukewarm water to the ○ ingredients and mix well. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 3 minutes (for a 500 watt microwave). Then mix gently and microwave for 3 more minutes.
  4. If you're using a 600 watt microwave, cook for 2 minutes, mix, and return to the microwave for 1 minute and 40 seconds. The picture shows the mixture after microwaving the first time and then mixing.
  5. When it's translucent like the picture, it's done. If it needs a little longer, microwave for 10 second intervals and watch carefully!

  7. Roll out into a thin dough. Try to roll it flat into a square, so you won't waste dough. (But somehow I always end up making a rectangle..)
  8. Cut into squares. Rectangles are okay too. I recommend using a pizza cutter for this step!
  9. Cut off a corner of the bag of anko (sweet bean paste) and squeeze out anko. If you make a pretty large incision in the bag, the anko will come out like in the picture, and the yatsuhashi will look nice when you fold it.
  10. If the dough pieces were too long when you cut them, you can stretch with your hands to make them more square.
  11. You can get all the ingredients at a supermarket, so it only costs about 100 yen to make this recipe.

Foods That Make Your Mood Better

Mostly, people have been trained to believe that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and must be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is essentially candy or other junk foods, this can be true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be super nutritious and good for you. There are some foods that really can improve your moods when you eat them. If you seem to be a little bit down and you’re needing an emotional pick me up, try several of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be really terrific at dealing with depression. You should see to it, though, that what you make includes the yolk. The egg yolk is the most essential part of the egg iwhen it comes to helping raise your mood. Eggs, particularly the yolks, are rich in B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be great for elevating your mood. This is because the B vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that dictate your mood–function better. Eat an egg and feel a lot better!

Make a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all great for elevating your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have a lot of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” chemical and it tells your brain how you should be feeling day in and day out. The more serotonin you have, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Not only that but nuts, in particular, are a fantastic protein food source.

Cold water fish are wonderful for eating if you are wanting to beat back depression. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, and so on, they’re all high in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two substances that boost the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s the truth: eating tuna fish sandwiches can actually help you overcome your depression.

Some grains are really great for driving away bad moods. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are terrific at helping you feel better. They fill you up better and that can help elevate your moods too. Feeling hungry can be awful! The reason these grains can improve your mood is that they are not difficult for your body to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps jumpstart a rise in your blood glucose which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.

Green tea is wonderful for moods. You just knew it had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is high in a certain amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies show that this particular amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This will improve your brain’s concentration while also loosening up the rest of your body. You were already aware that that green tea helps you feel better. Now you are aware that green tea can help raise your mood too!

So you see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are bad for you so you can feel better! Try a few of these instead!
