It's already February in 2024. Many of you may be taking entrance exams or have children who are taking entrance exams.
At this time of year, my main concern is managing my health. In order to prevent colds, it is important to get proper nutrition every day.
Carbohydrates are said to be the brain's energy source, but high-quality protein and oil are also essential.

That's why chef Rinko Shizuno suggested this sea bream recipe.

``This time, I took the time to grill the sea bream in a salt pot.It's moist and flaky, and is delicious and nutritious.'' (Mr. Shizuno)

Get proper nutrition to help your body withstand the cold

It has been said for a long time that "eating fish makes you smarter."
The reason is that it contains fatty acids called DHA and EPA.
DHA protects neurotransmitters in the brain and supports the exchange of information between cells. On the other hand, EPA is known for its ability to thin the blood.
It is said that DHA and EPA are found in large amounts in the oil of blue fish, but you can also get a good amount of them from sea bream.

In addition, sea bream also contains vitamin B1, which helps metabolize carbohydrates, which are the brain's energy source, so it is a recommended food for this season when you want to concentrate.

And what I want you to take with you during exam season is vitamin D. It is a nutrient that you should actively consume during the cold season when it is easy to get sick, as it can prevent physical ailments.
Vitamin D can be obtained through food, but it can also be produced in the body when exposed to sunlight. During this time of year when there is less sunlight and people don't go out much to study for entrance exams, we recommend supplementing with supplements.

Baking in a salt pot locks in the nutrients of the sea bream.

"Salt sea bream grilled with salt is often served at celebratory occasions such as the New Year and on special occasions. Wrapping it in salt and grilling it steams the ingredients, resulting in a moist and flaky finish. It is often grilled with kelp wrapped in it. However, this time I tried making it Western style with herbs.'' (Mr. Shizuno)


[Ingredients] (1 sea bream)

1 sea bream (with head) (500-600g)
Egg whites 3 eggs (S size)
Ara salt 1kg
3 tablespoons flour
A couple of herbs (rosemary, bay leaf, parsley, etc.)
1 lemon


[How to make]

1. Wipe the inside of the sea bream after removing the scales and internal organs. Fill your stomach with half the herbs.

"The key is to mix several types of herbs. Rosemary is a must. Other recommended herbs include bay leaf, parsley, and thyme." (Mr. Shizuno)

2. Mix egg whites, salt, and flour until combined.

3. Spread 1/4 of the amount on a cooking sheet into an oval shape so that the sea bream is on top, and top with the sliced lemon and herbs as needed.

4. Place the sea bream on top of Step 3 and top with the lemon and herbs.

5. Cover the sea bream with the remaining salt until it is no longer visible. You can prevent cracks by being careful not to let air in.
After wrapping it in a salt pot, put it in the oven as soon as possible.

6. Bake in the oven at 200℃ for 30 minutes. Garnish with the remaining lemon wedges and serve.

"Please enjoy it while it's freshly baked. If you wait too long, too much salt will be added." (Mr. Shizuno)

summary

The content of your meals is important to improve your concentration, but there are also important points in how you eat them.
First of all, eat three meals a day and eat regularly. Not only does it provide proper nutrition, but it also helps regulate the rhythm of your life and helps you sleep better.

And chew your food thoroughly. Saliva production also stimulates the secretion of digestive enzymes, which improves the absorption of nutrients. Chewing also increases blood flow in the brain and activates the brain.
Add `` Lypo-C C+D'' to help you get through the exam season nutritionally.
