Edamame makes an easy and protein-packed tasty snack or appetizer. You can either buy them fresh or frozen, and cook them in a pinch and flavor them to your taste preference.
I always keep frozen edamame stocked in my freezer (you cant taste the difference between fresh and frozen).
Boiling Edamame
A simple method that only requires a pot and some water. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add enough salt so the water tastes as salty as sea water. Add in-shell edamame and cook until the beans are tender and the edamame floats to the top of the water (about 5 minutes). Drain, rinse with cold water to cool, and season as desired before serving.
For my Sesame Oil & Chili Paste seasoning recipe follow the instructions below.
