Kombucha To Kimchi: Which Fermented Foods Are Best For Your Brain?

Many countries around the world have their own staple fermented foods which are ingrained into culture and diet. It can’t be a coincidence that this has happened again and again. It seems logical that fermented foods offer more than a method of preservation.? Diet can hugely impact your mental health and previous research has shown that some foods are particularly good at positively impacting your brain. Fermented foods are a source of tryptophan, an amino acid key to the production of serotonin, a messenger in the brain which influences several aspects of brain function, including mood. The foods may also contain other brain messengers (known as neurotransmitters) in their raw form. It’s no surprise then that research has shown that eating fermented foods may have various long- and short-term impacts on brain function, such as reducing stress. But which foods have the biggest impact on brain health?? Researchers at APC Microbiome, University College Cork, and Teagasc (Ireland’s Ag

Vegan Chocolate Custard Recipe

Ingredients: 4 level tablespoons/60ml corn flour 6 tablespoons/75g/90ml white sugar 2 cups/500ml milk substitute 1 cup/225ml water 5 tablespoons/37.5g/75ml cocoa 1 teaspoon/5ml vanilla extract Add all ingredients to a saucepan and whisk vigorously until completely combined and smooth without lumps. Place the saucepan on the stove on low-medium heat, continue to whisk frequently for about 10 minutes until it slowly brought to the boil. Be careful that the custard does not stick to the bottom of the saucepan. Take off the heat at this point (It will have thickened but will still be easy to pour). Allow to sit for 10 minutes to allow to thicken if eating hot or pour into a bowl or ramekin and refrigerate for at least 3 hours until completely set. The set consistency will be similar to a soft jelly. private chefs and event catering Palm Beach + Boca Raton + Fort Lauderdale + Miami Beach info@yadachef.com | 954-367-YADA (9232) 561-285-7466 www.yadachef.com south florida catering and pers

Bouillabaisse Recipe

"...if you do not happen to l ive on the Mediterranean, you cannot obtain the particular rockfish, gurnards, mullets, weavers, sea eels, wrasses, and breams which they [French experts] consider absolutely essential. But you can make an extremely good fish soup even if you have only frozen fish and canned clam juice to work with because the other essential flavoring of tomatoes, onions or leeks, garlic, herbs, and olive oil are always available." --Julia Child" Bouillabaisse is a fish stew that originated in Marseilles, France around 600 B.C..
