Edamame Salted Soybeans

If using frozen edamame, rinse them under cold running water to remove any ice crystals. You do not need to fully thaw them.

Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat. Ensure there is enough water to fully submerge the edamame.

Once the water is boiling vigorously, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of sea salt to the pot. This will season the edamame from within as it cooks.

Carefully add the rinsed edamame pods to the boiling salted water. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the beans inside the pods are tender-crisp and bright green.

Once cooked, promptly drain the edamame thoroughly using a colander. Shake the colander gently to remove excess water.

Transfer the hot, drained edamame to a serving bowl. Sprinkle generously with additional sea salt to taste while they are still warm. Serve immediately as a delightful appetizer or snack.
