Edamame

Edamame

I must confess that I have a teensy bit of an addiction to this simple little snack. How much easier can a snack be to prepare? Steam them, sprinkle with coarse sea salt and enjoy. They make a great, light appetizer, too, and they make a simple, lovely presentation.

Edamame is just green soybeans. They are grown in China and frozen. You can purchase them either in the pod, or out of the pod. For some reason, popping them out of the pod makes them fun to eat, but that’s just me. ;-)
