  3. Sift the dry ingredients into the bowl and fold with a rubber spatula. It should become crumbly.
  4. Press the dough together with the palm of your hands. Squeeze it together, but don't knead.
  5. Wrap with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour. Make the cream in the same bowl and whisk without washing either.
  6. To prepare the pan, melt some butter (amount separate from listed ingredients) and brush over the pan's surface. Chill in the refrigerator.
  7. Use a tea strainer to dust the pan with flour, using a soft brush to brush off the excess. Chill in the refrigerator until just before you're ready to bake.
  8. To prepare the almond cream, knead the butter with a whisk, add the powdered sugar and mix.
  9. Add the egg a little at a time (so that it doesn't separate), mixing with each addition.

  12. Line your working surface with plastic wrap and place the crust dough on top. Sandwich it with another piece of plastic wrap. Roll the dough out to a 3 mm thickness, turning the dough every so often to spread it evenly.
  13. Use the wrap to transfer and press the dough into the tart pan. Lightly press it into the edges with your fingers.
  14. Cut off the excess dough. You can bake the leftover dough later, so roll it up into a ball, wrap with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator.

  16. Pour in the cream and smooth the surface. Chill in the refrigerator. Begin preheating the oven to 180℃

Foods That Make Your Mood Better

In general, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and need to be avoided. But if your comfort food is candy or junk food this might be true. At times, comfort foods can be very healthy and good for us to eat. There are some foods that basically can raise 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, are terrific for helping you combat depression. Just be sure that you don’t get rid of the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, specifically the egg yolks, are loaded with B vitamins. B vitamins can actually help you boost your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–work better. Consume an egg and be happy!

Put together a trail mixout of different seeds and nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera are all fantastic for helping to boost your mood. This is because these foods are high in magnesium, which helps to raise your production of serotonin. Serotonin is called the “feel good” chemical and it tells your brain how you should be feeling day in and day out. The more you have of it, the happier you will feel. Not just that but nuts, in particular, are a great protein source.

If you wish to beat depression, try consuming some cold water fish. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all chock-full of omega-3s and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that really help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s the truth: consuming tuna fish sandwiches can truly help you battle your depression.

It’s not difficult to overcome your bad mood when you eat grains. Barley, quinoa, millet, teff, etc are all great for helping you feel better. They help you feel full too which can really help to make your mood better. Feeling famished can be awful! These grains can elevate your mood because it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps kick start a rise in your blood sugar which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.

Green tea is really great for your mood. You were just waiting to read that, weren’t you? Green tea is loaded with a particular amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies prove that this particular amino acid can actually induce brain waves. This helps improve your mental focus while relaxing the rest of your body. You knew green tea could help you feel better. Now you know that applies to your mood as well!

Now you can see that junk food isn’t necessarily what you need to eat when you are wanting to help your moods get better. Try some of these instead!
