Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Edamame

    Rinse the edamame pods under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.

  2. 2

    Steam the Edamame

    Fill a pot with about an inch of water and bring it to a boil. Place the edamame in a steamer basket and set it over the boiling water. Cover and steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until the pods are tender and bright green.

  3. 3

    Season the Edamame

    Remove the steamer basket from the pot and transfer the steamed edamame to a serving bowl. Sprinkle the sea salt over the pods while they are still warm and toss gently to coat.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the edamame pods warm as an appetizer or snack. Enjoy by popping the beans out of the pods with your fingers.
