Edamame 枝豆
Full of beans
Boiled in their pods and eaten warm, edamame are a culinary treat not to be missed!
As an appetiser, enjoyed between sips of beer, the Japanese eat edamame served in their pods.
They are actually soybeans, picked before maturity and lightly boiled. They can be served hot, warm, or cold, liberally sprinkled with salt.
