INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 (1 pound) package frozen Edamame (Soybeans)
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons Morton® Coarse Kosher Salt

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Prepare edamame according to package directions for conventional or microwave cooking. Use 1/8 teaspoon Morton Kosher Salt in cooking liquid. Drain edamame and lightly sprinkle with remaining Morton® Kosher Salt before serving.


Tip:

To enjoy Edamame, use your teeth to squeeze the beans out of the pod. Soybean pods are pulled along teeth and beans are removed for eating. Discard soybean pods.

Nutrition note:

Edamame are immature (green) soybeans that can be served in or out of their pods. They are a good source of protein, fiber and a variety of other nutrients. They have the nutritional content of a substitute for meat. They have a buttery, nutty flavor much like baby lima beans. Add the shelled beans to soups and stir fries.
