Classic Steamed Edamame

Instructions

1. 1

   Bring a large Pot of Water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the Kosher Salt — the Water should taste pleasantly salty, like the sea.

2. 2

   Add the frozen Edamame In Pods Unshelled directly to the boiling Water (no need to thaw). Stir once to submerge them evenly.

3. 3

   Boil for 5–6 minutes, until the pods are bright green and the beans inside feel tender when you press a pod between your fingers. Don't overcook — they should have a slight firmness, not be mushy.

4. 4

   Drain immediately through a Colander. Shake off excess Water.

5. 5

   Transfer the Edamame In Pods Unshelled to a serving Bowl. While still hot, sprinkle generously with Flaky Sea Salt and toss to coat. Taste and adjust salt as needed.

6. 6

   Serve immediately while warm, or let cool to room temperature and refrigerate for up to 3 days. To eat, squeeze the beans directly into your mouth from the pod — the pod itself is not eaten.
