1
Prepare the Edamame
If using frozen edamame, remove it from the freezer to allow it to thaw slightly. Fresh edamame should be rinsed under cold water.
2
Boil Water
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over high heat. Add the salt to the water.

3
Cook the Edamame
Once the water is boiling, add the edamame to the pot. If using fresh edamame, boil for about 5-6 minutes; if using frozen, boil for about 3-4 minutes. The edamame should be tender but still firm.
4
Drain and Season
After cooking, drain the edamame in a colander. If desired, toss the warm edamame with garlic powder, chili flakes, and sesame oil for added flavor.

5
Serve
Serve the edamame warm in a bowl. Enjoy as a snack or appetizer, and remember to pop the beans out of their pods before eating!
