Instructions to make Mushrooms and Chestnuts in Autumn-Coloured Paella:

1. Cut the chicken thigh into bite-sized pieces, season with salt and pepper, and leave for a while.
2. Lightly wash the rice, soak in water for about 15 minutes, and drain in a sieve for about 15 minutes.
3. Rinse off the syrup from the chestnuts, pat dry, and roast in the toaster oven until they turn light brown on the surface.
4. Cut off the stem end of the mushrooms. Pull shimeji or maitake mushrooms apart. Cut enoki or king oyster mushrooms into thirds, and shred vertically by hand.
5. Pour olive oil in a Le Creuset pan or paella pan (or frying pan), place the chicken thigh from Step 1 facing the skin side down, and sauté over medium heat.
6. Brown the chicken without moving much. The chicken will be cooked with the rice later on, so take out from the pan before it's cooked through, and set aside.
7. Add a little olive oil in the emptied pan, put all of the mushrooms, sauté them briefly, and remove from the pan.
8. In the emptied pan, add the garlic and onion, sauté them without scorching, and turn off the heat.
9. Break up the saffron into small pieces. Combine the saffron and 1 tablespoon of the 185 ml chicken soup stock, and microwave for 15 seconds to make saffron water.
10. If you don't have saffron, you can sprinkle with turmeric to make the soup yellow.
11. Put the rice, saffron water, the remaining chicken soup, and sherry into the pan from Step 8. Heat over low-medium heat for 7 minutes.
12. After 7 minutes, add the mushrooms, chicken, and chestnuts on top, cover with a lid, and heat over low-medium heat for a further 6 minutes.
13. After 6 minutes, open the lid, arrange the red bell pepper, cover with the lid, and heat over high heat for 30 seconds.
14. Steam with the lid on for 10-15 minutes. Open the lid, garnish with chopped Italian parsley and thinly sliced lemon.
15. You can buy a jar of sweet chestnuts in sugar syrup. As long as you have this at home, you can eat chestnut rice all year round.

Place dried porcini mushrooms in a spice grinder and pulse until a powder forms, set aside. In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the rice and stir until it is well coated with the oil. Add the stock, stirring well, cover, and. There are few dishes as flavor-packed, comforting, and vibrant as paella.

Discover How to Elevate Your Mood with Food

Most of us believe that comfort foods are terrible for us and that we need to avoid them. Often, if the comfort food is candy or another junk food, this holds true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be altogether healthy and it’s good for you to eat them. There are some foods that, when you consume them, may improve your mood. If you seem to feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try a few of these.

Eggs, you may be astonished to find out, are fantastic at combating depression. You must make sure, however, that what you make includes the yolk. The egg yolk is the most important part of the egg in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, the egg yolks particularly, are rich in B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be great for lifting up your mood. This is because the B vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that dictate your mood–work better. Eat an egg and cheer up!

Make a trail mixfrom various seeds and nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all great for elevating your mood. This is because these nuts are rich in magnesium, which helps to increase serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical substance that directs your brain how you feel all the time. The more of this chemical in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not just that but nuts, particularly, are a fantastic protein food source.

Cold water fish are great for eating if you wish to beat back depression. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all rich in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two things that promote the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can greatly raise your mood.

It’s not hard to overcome your bad mood when you are eating grains. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all good for helping you feel better. These foods can help you feel full for longer also, which can help your mood too. Feeling starved can be a real downer! The reason these grains elevate your mood is that they are not hard for your stomach to digest. They are easier to digest than other foods which helps bring up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, raises your mood.

Green tea is excellent for moods. You knew it had to be in here somewhere, right? Green tea is rich in an amino acid known as L-theanine. Research has proved that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This helps better your mental sharpness while calming the rest of your body. You were already aware that that green tea helps you become better. Now you are aware that green tea helps you to raise your moods too!

You can see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are not good for you so you can feel better! Try some of these instead!
