Ingredients

  • 1 lb frozen edamame, in the pod (3-4 cups)
  • Dressing
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Garnish
  • sesame seeds, toasted

Method

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add edamame and continue boiling until beans are crisp-tender, about 6 minutes.
  • Meanwhile mix remaining ingredients together.
  • When done, run cold water over, or put in ice water, to stop cooking. Drain well; pat excess moisture off, and toss in the dressing.
  • Top with seeds.
  • To eat, hold pod by stem end, and slide the individual beans out with your teeth. Discard pod.
