Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup edamame (in pods), frozen or fresh
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, finely minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Cook Edamame: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, then add the edamame pods. Boil for 5 minutes until they are tender but still firm. Drain and set aside.
  2. Prepare Seasoning: In a small bowl, combine finely minced garlic, chili flakes, and soy sauce.
  3. Toss Edamame with Seasoning: While the edamame is still warm, toss the pods with the garlic, chili flakes, and soy sauce mixture until evenly coated and aromatic.

Notes

  • To remove the edamame from the pods, simply squeeze the beans out with your fingers or teeth while eating.
  • Adjust the amount of chili flakes depending on your spice preference.
  • For extra flavor, you can add a drizzle of sesame oil or sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
  • Use low-sodium soy sauce to reduce salt intake if desired.
