Growing up in England, Piccalilli was commercially available, but none were as good as my grandmother's recipe. This was always a favorite with cheese. Piccalilli is an old, favourite English pickle made with various vegetables and spices. Make some homemade piccalilli to serve with cold meats and cheese.

Instructions to make Piccalilli:

1. Break down half a cauliflower into small florets
2. Dice the red onion into about 1/2cm dice
3. Dice the pepper, carrot and cucumber to the same size, remove the seeds from the cucumber first.
4. Add salt to all the cut vegetables, stir and refrigerate for about 12 hours, best do this over night. This should draw some water out.
5. Rinse the veg then pat dry on a clean t towel, fine dice the chilli (up to you if you leave the seeds in) then combine in a pan with 3/4 of the vinegar
6. Combine the remaining vinegar with the cornflour and stir to a smooth paste, bring the vinegar and chilli to a boil and turn down and simmer for 10 minutes (this infuses the chilli)
7. Transfer the chilli and vinegar mixture into a pan large enough to fit all of the veg into, add the sugar, turmeric and mustard powder.
8. Add the cornflour mixture to the pan and place on a low heat and simmer until it thickens (a few minutes)
9. Add the veg and stir over a low heat for a few minutes just to soften the veg slightly and to coat them all in the sauce. Meanwhile boil your jam jars in water for a few minutes to sterilise, remove with tongs and let them steam dry.
10. To make a cartouche, take a square of parchment paper, fold in half and in half again, then fold into a triangle making sure the centre is the point
11. Fold the triangle once more then offer the tip to the centre of your jam jar to work out the radius, cut the fat end at the radius this should give you a disc of paper that will fit inside the rim of the jar to help preserve the relish.
12. Fill the sterilised jars with piccalilli to almost the top whilst still hot, sit the paper onto the top before sealing with the lid. You may like to watch my youtube video which I have taken these screen shots from thank you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-gxV0JpfNc&amp;t=537s

Spoon into the hot jars and cover with a disc of wax paper.

How to Elevate Your Mood with Food

In general, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and must be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is essentially candy or other junk foods, this holds true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be completely nourishing and it’s good for you to consume them. There are a number of foods that actually can improve your moods when you eat them. When you feel a little down and are in need of an emotional pick-me-up, test out a couple of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be really terrific at dealing with depression. You must make sure, however, that what you make includes the yolk. The egg yolk is the most essential part of the egg iwhen it comes to helping raise your mood. Eggs, especially the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be fantastic for boosting your mood. This is because the B vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that tell you how to feel). Try eating a few eggs to jolly up!

Make a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be elevated by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is possible since these foods are rich in magnesium which raises serotonin production. Serotonin is referred to as the “feel good” substance that our body produces and it tells your brain how you should be feeling day in and day out. The more of it you have, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Not only that, nuts, specifically, are a great source of protein.

Cold water fish are great for eating if you want to fight depression. Cold water fish like tuna, trout and wild salmon are high in DHA and omega-3s. These are two things that promote the quality and the function of your brain’s grey matter. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can basically help you fight back depression.

It’s easy to overcome your bad mood when you are eating grains. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are terrific at helping you feel better. These grains can help you feel full for longer as well, which is a mood improver. Feeling famished can truly bring you down! These grains can improve your mood as it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps raise your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, elevates your mood.

Green tea is fantastic for moods. You were just expecting to read that, weren’t you? Green tea has been found to be rich in an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies show that this particular amino acid can basically stimulate brain waves. This helps improve your mental energy while at the same time calming your body. You knew green tea could help you become healthier. Now you are aware that it helps you to lift your moods too!

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