Steps to make Jibuni-style Hot Pot with Thick Broth:

Cut the meat into bite size.
Rub the ◎ ingredients into the meat. Then sprinkle the katakuriko evenly on the meat.
Cut the Japanese leeks and skewer between the pieces of meat. Add oil to a frying pan and fry the skewers on both sides to seal in the umami flavor.
They'll boil in the pot later, so at this point, just cook the skewers until they're 60-70% done. You could use pork or beef instead of chicken. The skewers in the photo were made with pork shoulder.
Wash the taro root and microwave at 600 W for 5-6 minutes. Peel and cut in half. The size of the taro root will change cooking time so adjust for your microwave.
Divide the Chinese cabbage leaves from the stems. Roughly chop the leaves and cut the stems into thin strips, almost to a julienne, so they cook easily.
Cut the bok choy the same way as the Chinese cabbage. Julienne the carrots with a slicer or a knife. Cut the chikuwa into bite-size pieces.
Soak the kombu in water and make dashi stock, being careful not to let it boil. Then remove the kombu and ● ingredients for seasoning. Mix in the ▲ slurry to thicken the broth.
At Step 8, the broth may not seem very thick yet, but when you add the katakuriko-coated meat, it will thicken even more.
Add the hot pot ingredients and simmer. The broth will be thick, so add the ingredients little by little. Be careful not to let anything burn and do not add too many ingredients while it's cooking over high heat.
Serve in individual bowls. Eat with the ★ ingredients and enjoy. If the flavor of the broth gets too concentrated, add water.
For the "shime" (the end of the meal), boil udon noodles, harusame noodles, soba noodles, or somen noodles in the broth. Any kind of noodles go well. I would also recommend cooking mochi cakes by dipping them in the boiling broth ("shabu-shabu").
Of course, adding rice, eggs and green onions to the broth is also good. Top with shredded nori seaweed sheets or crushed sesame seeds if you like.
If you're using any ingredients that release scum or takes a long time to cook, blanch first. Add any ingredients you like.

Discover How to Elevate Your Mood with Food

Mostly, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and must be avoided. At times, if the comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this holds true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be totally nutritious and it’s good for you to consume them. There are some foods that actually can raise your moods when you consume them. If you are feeling a little bit down and you need a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.

Eggs, you might be astonished to discover, are fantastic at fighting depression. Just see to it that you do not throw out the yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most crucial in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, especially the yolks, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can genuinely help you raise your mood. This is because the B vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–function better. Eat an egg and jolly up!

Make a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc are all good for improving your mood. This is possible since these foods are high in magnesium which boosts your production of serotonin. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” substance that our body produces and it tells your brain how you should be feeling all the time. The more serotonin you have, the happier you are going to feel. Nuts, in addition to raising your mood, can be a great source of protein.

Cold water fish are great if you want to feel better. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all high in omega-3 fats and DHA. These are two substances that boost the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s the truth: consuming tuna fish sandwiches can really help you fight your depression.

Some grains are truly great for fighting off bad moods. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all actually wonderful for helping boost your happiness levels. They fill you up better and that can help you with your moods as well. Feeling famished can actually bring you down! The reason these grains are so wonderful for your mood is that they are not difficult for your body to digest and process. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps kick start a rise in your blood glucose which in turn kicks up your mood to a happier place.

Green tea is actually good for your mood. You were simply expecting to read that, weren’t you? Green tea is loaded with an amino acid known as L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while also calming the rest of your body. You already knew green tea could help you feel so much healthier. Now you know that applies to your mood as well!

You can see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are bad for you to feel better! Try some of these suggestions instead.
