The ingredients needed to make Beef Steak (Bistecca):
  1. Get 300 grams Beef (loin or sirloin)
  2. Make ready 1 Salt (natural)
  3. Prepare 1 Black pepper
  4. Prepare 10 ml Olive oil
  5. Take 2 clove Garlic
Steps to make Beef Steak (Bistecca):
  1. Prepare the ingredients. Take the beef out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before you cook it, so it gets close to room temperature. This is the biggest key to this recipe!
  2. Season the room temperature steak on both sides generously with salt and pepper. (Press it in with your hands so that it doesn't fall off as the steak cooks!)
  3. Heat a pan until it's smoking lightly, and add the steak. Put in the garlic too. The heat should be about medium-high!
  4. Brown well on both sides.
  5. When the garlic turns brown, put it on the meat.
  6. If the meat is springs back when you press it, it's done.
  7. The second key: Wrap the cooked steak in aluminium foil and leave it to rest in a warm place, such as near the cooktop.
  8. When you press down on the steak with your finger, it will spring back more than before. If it no longer feels like raw meat, slice it up! If the meat juices don't spurt out of the steak, it's a success.
  9. Slice thickly and serve!
  10. This is a great main dish. It's also delicious with lemon juice or balsamic vinegar. Wasabi soy sauce is great too!
  11. To summarize: 1. Have the steak at room temperature before you cook it. If it's still cold, the meat will be tough, and won't cook through properly to the middle!
    1. Season generously with salt and pepper, and heat in the pan until it's smoking slightly. Smear the oil on the steak rather than putting it in the pan.
    1. After the steak is seared evenly, wrap in aluminium foil and rest in a warm place. It's done if it springs back when you press the steak in the middle with your finger.
  12. You should rest the steak for as long as you cooked it. If the steak is thin, just sear the outside and rest for a little while. ♪

Try Using Food to Improve Your Mood

Mostly, people have been taught to believe that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and should be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is basically candy or other junk foods, this can be true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be completely nutritious and it’s good for you to consume them. There are a number of foods that actually can boost your moods when you eat them. If you are feeling a little bit down and you need a happiness pick me up, try some of these.

Eggs, you might be amazed to discover, are fantastic at battling depression. Just see to it that you don’t get rid of the yolk. The egg yolk is the most crucial part of the egg in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, especially the yolks, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are wonderful for helping to boost your mood. This is because they help in improving the function of your neural transmitters, the components of your brain that dictate your mood. Eat an egg and be happy!

Put together a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all terrific for helping to boost your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is referred to as the “feel good” chemical substance and it tells your brain how you should be feeling day in and day out. The higher your serotonin levels, the better you will feel. Not only that, nuts, in particular, are a terrific source of protein.

If you wish to beat depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are high in DHA and omega-3s. These are two things that raise the quality and the function of your brain’s grey matter. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can really help you overcome depression.

Grains can be excellent for fighting a terrible mood. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all truly wonderful for helping boost your happiness levels. These grains can help you feel full for longer as well, which can help your mood too. Feeling famished can be terrible! The reason these grains are so wonderful for your mood is that they are not hard for your stomach to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps kick start a rise in your blood sugar which in turn kicks up your mood to a happier place.

Green tea is actually great for your mood. You were just expecting to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea is found to be packed full of an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have discovered that this amino acid essentially stimulates brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while at the same calming the rest of your body. You likely already knew how easy it is to become healthy when you consume green tea. And now you know it can help you be happier as well!

As you can see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are bad for you to feel better! Test out these hints instead!
