Nine minutes from the freezer to the bowl. The only thing that goes wrong is seasoning wet pods, which leaves the salt in the bottom of the bowl instead of on the food.

Ingredients

Written for 2 servings. Change the servings to rescale every amount.

  • Edamame

    300 grams

  • Sesame Oil

    1 teaspoon (4.5 grams)

  • Sesame Seeds

    1 tablespoon (9 grams)

  • Chilli Flakes

    1 pinch

  • Salt

    1 pinch

Steps

  1. Boil the pods in well-salted water for five minutes, straight from frozen. The 300 g here is the beans — that is roughly 600 g of pods on the scale.

    5 min

  2. Drain them hard and shake the colander dry. Water left on the pods washes the seasoning straight off.

    1 min

  3. Toss them hot with the sesame oil, the sesame seeds, the chilli flakes and the salt.

    2 min

Serving suggestion

Pull the beans out with your teeth and leave the pods — they are not eaten. Put a second bowl out for them.

Storage

Two days in the fridge. They are good cold, so do not bother reheating them.

Notes

The amount counts the beans only, the way shellfish is counted as meat weight. Counting the pods would double the figures.
