Instructions
How to Cook Raw Edamame (If your edamame are pre-cooked, please skip to frying)
- Add 1000 ml water and 10 g salt to a pot and bring it to a boil over a medium heat.
- While you're waiting for the water to boil, wash 200 g edamame and cut off the ends with scissors.
- Place them in a large bowl and rub 8 g salt over the surface to exfoliate and remove the small hairs.
- Once the water is boiling, add the edamame to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes. (If you are using frozen preboiled edamame, boil for 1-2 minutes straight from frozen.)
- Once cooked, pour into a sieve to drain and shake to remove the excess water.
Frying in the glaze
- Heat a frying pan on medium. Once hot, add 1 tsp toasted sesame oil and the boiled edamame.
- Add 2 tsp oyster sauce and ½ tsp grated garlic, and stir fry for 3 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and sprinkle with ¼ tsp ground black pepper.
- Mix thoroughly and serve with a sprinkle of dried red chili pepper or toasted white sesame seeds and enjoy!
Notes
To eat edamame, use your teeth to pull the beans out of the pods and discard.
Do not eat the pods.
