👨‍🍳 作り方

1. 1

   Prepare the edamame: If using frozen edamame, there's no need to thaw. If using fresh, rinse them under cold water. Place the edamame pods in a colander. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of salt and gently rub the pods together with your hands. This helps to remove any fine fuzz and opens up the pods slightly for better seasoning.

   ⏱️ 3 minutes
2. 2

   Boil the edamame: Fill a large pot with enough water to generously cover the edamame. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of salt to the water. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, carefully add the prepared edamame pods to the pot. Ensure the water returns to a boil quickly.

   ⏱️ 5-7 minutes
3. 3

   Check for doneness: The edamame is ready when the pods are bright green and the beans inside are tender-firm. They should still have a slight bite, not be mushy. You can test by carefully removing one pod, letting it cool slightly, and popping out a bean to taste.

   Drain and season: Once cooked to your liking, drain the edamame thoroughly in a colander. Transfer the hot edamame to a serving bowl. Taste and sprinkle with a little more salt, if desired, while still warm.

   Serve: Edamame can be enjoyed warm, at room temperature, or chilled. To eat, place a pod in your mouth, bite down to release the beans, and discard the pod. This is a perfect accompaniment to drinks or as a light appetizer.
