Edamame Beans

Ingredients

Edamame beans

Sea salt

Method

Simply boil the edamame beans in water – around seven minutes from frozen, and three or four for fresh. Once boiled, refresh immediately in cold water in order to preserve the colour. Then, drain thoroughly and sprinkle with sea salt.

Edamame beans are a delicious and healthy snack - very often eaten in Japan with an alcoholic drink (instead of peanuts). This is the simplest way of preparing them: boiled with a pinch of salt.
