Round dumplings are generally called dango, and kushi dango means skewered sweet dumplings. When you make dango with the only shiratamako, the texture tends to be too soft. The more you knead the dough, the chewier the dango will turn out to be. Prepare and heat a bamboo steamer.

Foods That Make You Happy
In general, people have been taught to believe that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and have to be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is a high sugar food or some other junk food, this holds true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be super nutritious and good for you. Some foods honestly do raise your mood when you eat them. When you feel a little down and need an emotional boost, test out a few of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually great at fighting back depression. You need to make sure, though, that what you make includes the yolk. The yolk is the most essential part of the egg in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, the egg yolks especially, are high in B vitamins. These B vitamins are wonderful for helping to boost 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). Try to eat an egg and feel better!
Build a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that tells your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more serotonin in your brain, the better you’ll feel. Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a great protein food source.
If you wish to battle depression, try consuming some cold water fish. Cold water fish including tuna, trout and wild salmon are high in DHA and omega-3s. DHA and omega-3s are two things that really help the grey matter in your brain work a lot better. It’s the truth: eating tuna fish sandwiches can actually help you fight your depression.
It’s easy to overcome your bad mood when you eat grains. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all truly excellent for helping boost your happiness levels. These foods fill you up better and that can help improve your moods too. Feeling famished can actually bring you down! The reason these grains elevate your mood is that they are not hard to digest. You digest these grains more quickly than other foods which can help boost your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel more pleasant, mood wise.
Your mood can truly be helped by green tea. You knew green tea had to be in this article somewhere, right? Green tea is found to be rich in an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have found that this particular amino acid can actually induce brain waves. This helps better your mental sharpness while having a relaxing effect on 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 helps you to raise your moods too!
See, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you want to feel better! Try some of these instead!
