Edamame is a delicious, protein-rich snack that’s quick and easy to prepare. This recipe offers two equally tasty ways to season boiled fresh-picked edamame.
Edamame Beans- Two Ways: Salted and Sweet & Spicy
Ingredients:
1 lb edamame beans
Salted Edamame– 2 tsp sea salt
Sweet and Spicy Edamame– 2 Tbsp soy sauce or coconut aminos, 2 tsp chili paste, 4 tsp honey, 2 tsp sesame seeds

- Clean edamame beans.
- Fill a large pot of water halfway with water. Add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil.
- Once the water is boiling, add the beans and cook for 5 minutes. The beans should turn bright green.

- Place the boiled beans in either a ziplock bag or a container with a lid.
- If you are making the salty version, place the salt in the bag/container with the beans. Seal and shake well to coat.
- If you are making the sweet and spicy version, mix the soy sauce, chili paste, honey, and sesame seeds in a small bowl. Pour the mixture over the boiled beans. Seal and shake well to coat.
- The edamame can be served warm or chilled.
- Enjoy!
