Before You Start
Bring a small pot of water to a boil and have a colander in the sink.
How To Make It
- Steam or boil the edamame 4 to 5 minutes, until the pods are bright green and a bean pops out tender.
- Drain well and tip into a bowl.
- Sprinkle with the sesame seed and a little salt.
- Toss with the cilantro and serve warm or cool.
Fix It: If the pods taste bland, salt them while they are still hot and damp so the salt clings.
Microwave
- Add the ingredients you would cook together to a microwave safe bowl along with their liquid.
- Cover loosely and microwave in one minute bursts, stirring between each, until hot through.
- Let it stand for a minute, then finish and plate the dish as written in the steps above.
