The ingredients needed to make Mochi Crepe with Tsubu-an:
  1. Take 1/2 cup Rice Flour

Steps to make Mochi Crepe with Tsubu-an:
  1. Combine Flour, Sugar, Salt and Water and mix well. It should be like pancake batter, not too runny like crepe batter. If you want to add Matcha Powder, add only small amount.
  2. Note: Rice Flour and Glutinous Rice Flour are available from most Asian Grocery Stores. Some supermarket stores sell them, too. These are the ones I use. Obviously not Japanese products, but easy to find and good enough for this recipe.
  3. Heat Non-stick Frying Pan. When it is hot, reduce heat to low.
  4. Pour in some batter to make a small crepe, about 10cm in size which is easy to flip over.
  5. This batter won’t bubble on top. As soon as the bottom is cooked & hard enough, flip it over. If you wait for too long, the top side will turn dry. You need to flip it over while the top side is still moist, especially the edges.
  6. When it is cooked, remove it from Frypan before it gets browned. Place on a plate and let it cool. The first one is a bit of a test, so adjust the batter by adding more flour or more water. You might need to adjust the heat as well.
  7. Continue cooking with the remaining batter. The crepes are very sticky. Do not stack them.
  8. Place some Tsubu-an (sweet red bean paste) on the crepes and fold them in half and again.

Turn to Food to Improve Your Mood

Mostly, people have been trained to believe that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and have to be avoided. Often, if the comfort food is a high sugar food or another junk food, this is very true. At times, comfort foods can be perfectly healthy and good for us to eat. A number of foods honestly do elevate your mood when you consume them. If you feel a little bit down and you’re needing an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, are fantastic for helping you combat depression. Just make sure that you do not throw out the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, the yolks especially, are loaded with B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to improve your mood. This is because the B vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that dictate how you feel). Eat an egg and jolly up!

Put together a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera are all fantastic for helping to boost your mood. This is because these foods are loaded with magnesium, which helps to boost serotonin production. Serotonin is referred to as the “feel good” chemical substance and it tells your brain how you should be feeling at all times. The more serotonin you have, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Not just that but nuts, in particular, are a great source of protein.

Cold water fish are wonderful for eating if you are wanting to battle depression. Cold water fish including tuna, trout and wild salmon are high in DHA and omega-3s. These are two substances that promote the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can really help you fight back depression.

Grains can be great for fighting a terrible mood. Teff, barley, millet, quinoa, etc are all wonderful for helping you be in a happier state of mind. These grains fill you up better and that can help improve your moods also. It’s not difficult to feel a little bit off when you feel famished! These grains can improve your mood as it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps kick up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, improves your mood.

Your mood can really be helped by green tea. You just knew it had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is loaded with a specific amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have found that this specific amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This will improve your brain’s concentration while at the same loosening up the rest of your body. You probably already knew it is not hard to become healthy when you consume green tea. Now you are aware that green tea can help raise your mood too!

As you can see, you don’t need to stuff your face with junk food when you want to feel better! Go with these suggestions instead!
