Instructions to make Character Bread! Anpanman (Koshi-an):
  1. Toss the ingredients marked with ★ into your HB (bread machine), make a hole in the center, and put the dry yeast in that hole (put the salt in the corners)
  2. Pour milk onto the yeast hole and knead the dough in the bread maker.
  3. Roll the dough into a ball in a bowl lightly-greased with vegetable oil (not listed in ingredients) and let it rise at room temperature until it's twice as big. If you're in a hurry, it's OK to let it rise in the bread maker.
  4. Divide the koshi-an into 6 parts and roll into balls. (Store-bought is OK, but I recommend homemade koshi-an. See - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/149280-how-to-make-koshi-an-anko-azuki-beans
  5. Separate out 72 g of the risen dough that will become the eyes and cheeks, and divide the rest into 6 pieces. (At this point, use a knife and don't tear it with your hands)
  6. Put the smooth, non-cut side on top and form the dough into balls as if stretching that side. Make 6 and cover with a damp towel.
  7. Divide the separated dough into 18 pieces (4 g each) and form into balls the same way (These will become Anpanman's nose and cheeks later)
  8. Spread out the large dough balls like in the picture, leaving the center fairly thick (When you cover the anko, the top and bottom will have the same thickness)
  9. Place the koshi-an in the center of the dough
  10. Pinch the edges of the dough and wrap so that they meet in the center.
  11. Spread out parchment paper on a baking sheet. Place the dough on it, seam-side down, gently squish down with your palm, and firmly poke a hole with a flour-coated finger.
  12. Spread milk on and around the hole (not listed in ingredients).
  13. Place three of the small dough balls on each big one and let rise a second time in the oven (20-30 minutes at 40-45℃)
  14. Make the chocolate for drawing the eyes during the second rising. Place ingredients marked with ◎ in a microwave-safe dish and melt, and mix together. Start with just a tiny bit of milk. Adjust the consistency of your chocolate mixture with additions of milk if needed. Cool in a thick plastic bag.
  15. Once the second rising is finished, spread egg on the surface of the dough and bake for 12~15 minutes at 180℃.
  16. Once it's cooled down, cut the corner of the plastic bag with the chocolate you made in 14 and draw eyes, eyebrows, and mouth

Turn to Food to Boost Your Mood

For the most part, people have been conditioned to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and need to be avoided. Sometimes, if the comfort food is candy or some other junk food, this is true. At times, comfort foods can be perfectly nutritious and good for us to eat. A number of foods honestly do improve your mood when you eat them. If you feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try a few of these.

Eggs, would you believe, are wonderful for helping you fight depression. Just make sure that you don’t get rid of the yolk. Every time you wish to cheer yourself up, the egg yolk is the most essential part of the egg. Eggs, the yolks in particular, are high in B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be great for raising your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–run better. Eat an egg and jolly up!

Make a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and so on are all great for helping to elevate your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical substance that dictates to the brain how to feel at any given moment. The more serotonin you have, the better you are going to feel. Not just that, nuts, in particular, are a fantastic source of protein.

If you wish to battle depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Cold water fish including tuna, trout and wild salmon are rich in DHA and omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that promote the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can greatly raise your mood.

Some grains are truly excellent for fighting off bad moods. Barley, millet, quinoa, etc are terrific at helping you feel better. These grains fill you up better and that can help elevate your moods also. Feeling starved can be a real downer! These grains can improve your mood as it’s not at all difficult for your body to digest them. You digest these foods faster than other things which can help promote your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.

Green tea is fantastic for moods. You were sure green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is chock-full of an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies show that this specific amino acid can actually stimulate brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while at the same calming the rest of your body. You already knew green tea could help you be better. Now you are aware that green tea helps you to lift your moods too!

So you see, you don’t need to consume all that junk food when you want to feel better! Try a few of these tips instead.
