You get to have both the memories and a good taste of the Japanese cuisine. Vegetable Dumplings - Vegan Gyoza (Jiaozi) Vegan Gyoza is one of my all-time favorite foods to eat when I'm in a Japanese or Chinese restaurant. These Potstickers are usually served steamed with a crispy bottom and filled with healthy vegetables. Vary this noodle classic by choosing a different ready-prepared vegetable pack - the Waitrose & Partners Tenderstem Broccoli and Mangetout Stir Fry works really well.

Steps to make Healthy Macrobiotic Vegetable Gyoza:

1. Soak the koya-dofu in water to rehydrate. Put the cabbage into a food processor to chop. Transfer the chopped cabbage into a bowl. Sprinkle with salt (not listed in the ingredients) and leave to sit for 20 minutes. Squeeze out the water from the cabbage.
2. Pulse the koya-dofu in your food processor, transfer to a separate bowl, and set aside.
3. Put the green onions, spring onions, king oyster mushroom, and maitake mushrooms into a food processor and chop finely. Grate the ginger.
4. Combine the ingredients from Steps 1, 2, and 3 with ● seasonings in a bowl and mix well. Wrap the mixture with gyoza pastries and pan fry.
5. [Tips for frying:] Heat some sesame oil (not listed in the ingredients) and arrange the gyoza in circle. Fry over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes. Agitate the frying pan occasionally.
6. After the bottom of the gyoza has browned, drizzle over a slurry of 50-60 ml water and 1 teaspoon ★ plain flour. Cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Continue to fry for about 3 minutes.
7. Uncover the lid and turn the heat to high. Evaporate the water and cook until crispy. The gyoza with crispy bits are done.
8. This packet of Chinese stock powder is vegetarian, but if you can't find it, simply omit it.

A few days ago I shared a recipe for Japanese Dumplings or Gyozas. These take a few minutes to make. Just pick up some dumpling wrappers at your grocery store or Asian food store with a few filling ingredients and you're good to go.

Use Food to Boost Your Mood

A lot of us think that comfort foods are terrible for us and that we have to keep away from them. Often, if your comfort food is a sugary food or some other junk food, this holds true. At times, comfort foods can be very nutritious and good for us to eat. There are several foods that actually can improve your moods when you consume them. When you are feeling a little down and need an emotional boost, try some of these.

Eggs, you may be astonished to find out, are wonderful at combating depression. Just see to it that you don’t get rid of the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, the yolks in particular, are loaded with B vitamins. B vitamins can be great for elevating your mood. This is because the B vitamins improve the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Eat an egg and feel a lot happier!

Put together some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Your mood can be elevated by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc. This is because these foods are high in magnesium, which helps to raise your production of serotonin. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical substance that dictates to the brain how to feel at any given point in time. The higher your levels of serotonin, the better you are going to feel. Not just that, nuts, in particular, are a terrific source of protein.

Cold water fish are great if you would like to be in a better mood. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, etc, they’re all chock-full of omega-3s and DHA. These are two substances that boost 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.

Some grains are really great for fighting off bad moods. Barley, quinoa, millet, teff, etc are all great for helping you feel happier. They help you feel full also which can really help to make your mood better. It’s easy to feel low when you are starving! The reason these grains are so wonderful for your mood is that they are not hard to digest. You digest them faster than other things which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.

Green tea is fantastic for moods. You just knew green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid called L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid induces the production of brain waves. This helps focus your mental energy while at the same time calming your body. You knew that green tea helps you feel a lot healthier. Now you are aware that it can help raise your mood too!

Now you know that junk food isn’t necessarily what you need to eat when you want to help your moods get better. Go with these hints instead!
