Instructions

  1. Boiled: Bring the water and salt to a boil in a medium pot. Add the edamame pods and boil for 4–5 minutes until tender. Drain, let cool slightly, and season with salt if desired.
  2. Steamed: Bring the water to a boil in a medium pot. Set a steamer basket in the pot so the water does not touch its bottom. Add the edamame pods, season with the salt, cover and steam for 5–7 minutes until tender. Sprinkle with salt if desired.
  3. Microwaved: Put the edamame pods in a microwave-safe dish and cover with a microwave-safe lid, leaving a small vent. Microwave on high for 4–5 minutes until heated through. Season with salt and toss before serving.
  4. Pan-seared: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the edamame pods and sauté for 4–5 minutes until they develop a slightly charred exterior. Season with salt to taste, then remove from the pan and serve immediately.
