To begin with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few ingredients. You can have beef & tomato noodles using 13 ingredients and 18 steps. Here is how you cook that.

The ingredients needed to make Beef & Tomato Noodles:
  1. Make ready 500-700 grams Beef Brisket
  2. Take 2-4 Eggs (depends how many people are eating)
  3. Make ready 2-4 Tomatoes

  11. Get 2 tsp white pepper
  12. Get 4 single packs of Udon noodles
  13. Take Spring onions to garnish
Steps to make Beef & Tomato Noodles:
  1. Begin by chopping the mushrooms, I normally slice them horizontally, it just looks better to well… see mushroom, shaped mushrooms, if you know what I mean.
  2. Quarter the tomatoes and put them and the mushrooms into a bowl together for later.
  3. Now peel the garlic, alternatively, you can just crush them, making removing the skin infinitely easier also this saves you having to crush it after you've peeled it (I'm an innovator I know) put the crushed skinless garlic into the same bowl as the tomatoes and mushrooms.
  4. If you haven't yet cut the ginger into an inch piece, an inch thick? I really don't know how to measure out ginger sorry. Anyway, do it now! and slice the inch into the 3 big pieces or finely slice it, I don't really like eating ginger and I make big chunks so I know what to keep away. Now put it into the bowl from step 3
  5. Chop the spring onions and put in a bowl save it for later.
  6. If you bought beef chunks or have already cut the brisket into cubes ignore this, but if you haven't, do it now!!!
  7. Now for the cooking to begin! Start by putting the beef into a cold pan, fill with cold water just enough to cover the meat by half an inch and bring to boil.
  8. Once boiling, drain the water and all the gunky stuff that'll appear on the surface of the water.
  9. Fill the pan back up with cold water and repeat step 7 and 8.
  10. Now for the actual soup. You may need a bigger pan or pot then you used to boil the beef, who knows. I don't know what pan you're using. Anyway in a big pot put in your beef fill with 1.5 litres of water. Throw in the tomato, mushroom, garlic, and ginger from earlier. You can also add the mirin, soy sauce, chicken powder, white pepper, and the gochujang if you want it spicy if someone you're serving doesn't like the heat just put it into individual bowls later. Slightly cover the pot and bring a
  11. Once boiling you can add the eggs just to boil for however long you want them(I like them hard-boiled). I'm not saying how long to boil an egg for it's basic you should already know.
  12. When the eggs are ready take them out and put into ice water to stop cooking further.
  13. After removing the eggs, turn the heat down and simmer for around 1-3 hours, it all depends on how big or small you cut the beef, take a piece out and try it to see how tender it is. Also, crush the tomatoes into the soup they should be soft enough now and release that flavour.
  14. After the eggs have cooled down peel and save for later.
  15. After around an hour you can remove the lid to reduce the soup for a thicker, richer broth if you wish. If not just leave the lid slightly covered until meat is soft and tender.
  16. Once the soup is ready and to your taste, you can start on the noodles. In another pot filled with water and bring to boil.
  17. When the water is boiling, drop in the noodles the boil until they're done or if you're using fresh udon like me boil until they separate, then drain.
  18. Now we can start assembling the dish! Begin by putting noodles into the bowl then the meat and mushrooms, then add the broth to cover the noodles. Finish it off with the spring onions and the egg sliced in half. (Optional: This is the last point you can add the gochujang as well to whoever wants to bring the heat!) This recipe was a lot longer then I thought I'm sorry but if you stayed with me until the end then I hope you enjoy it!

Discover How to Boost Your Mood with Food

In general, people have been taught to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and should be avoided. However, if your comfort food is candy or junk food this holds true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be really nutritious and good for you. There are a number of foods that actually can boost your moods when you consume 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, would you believe, are terrific for helping you battle depression. Just make sure that you do not throw away the egg yolk. When you want to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most important part of the egg. Eggs, particularly the yolks, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can be fantastic for boosting your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–work better. Try eating an egg and jolly up!

Put together some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all great for improving your mood. This is possible as these foods are high in magnesium which promotes serotonin production.

Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a terrific source of protein.

If you want to defeat depression, try consuming some cold water fish. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, and so on, they’re all chock-full of omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain run a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you fight depression.

Grains can be good for driving away a bad mood. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are terrific at helping you feel better. These grains fill you up better and that can help elevate your moods also. It’s not difficult to feel a little bit off when you feel famished! The reason these grains are so good for your mood is that they are not difficult for your stomach 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.

Your mood could really be helped by green tea. You knew green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is found to be rich in an amino acid called L-theanine.
