Shelled edamame is one of my absolute favorite frozen veggies to have on hand. It’s so versatile! I can throw it in soups like my vegan ramen or udon noodle soup, stir-fries like my chili garlic noodles, or just eat it plain as a side dish, perhaps with a dash of soy sauce or a sprinkle of salt. It just recently occurred to me that edamame would be the perfect main ingredient for a salad, and that’s what inspired this recipe. It’s incredibly easy to whip up and totally scrumptious. There’s a lot you can do with it too! While this salad is meant to be a side dish, you could put it over greens and turn it into a main. My husband and I even wrapped it up in tortillas for lunch.
How It’s Made
The following is a detailed photo tutorial on how to make this dish. Scroll all the way down if you’d like to skip right to the recipe! Tip: To thaw your frozen edamame quickly and easily, place it into a large container and cover it with a few inches of very hot water. Let it sit while you prepare the rest of your ingredients, then drain the water and give it a cool rinse before adding it to your salad. Your edamame salad is ready! Serve it as-is, or garnish it with some extra sesame seeds before you dig in.
