  1. 1

    Steam the Edamame

    In a pot, bring about 2 inches of water to a boil. Place the edamame pods in a steamer basket and insert it into the pot. Cover and steam for about 5-7 minutes until the pods are bright green and tender.

  2. 2

    Season the Edamame

    Once cooked, remove the edamame from the steamer and transfer to a serving bowl. Sprinkle with salt to taste and toss gently to coat.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Serve the edamame pods warm, allowing guests to pop the beans out of the pods with their fingers.
