Soybean, also known as vegetable soybean, is a vegetable soybean specially used for fresh and tender pods in soybean crops. Soybean is an annual crop with thick, hard and capillary stems. Its pods are flat and have fine hairs on them, so people call it soybean. In fact, edamame is a fresh immature soybean with pods, and its color is green, while soybean is a dried edamame with pods removed, and its color is yellow, but the picking period is different. "edamame" is a seasonal vegetable in summer and is often used for cooking or cold salad.

There are many kinds of edamame in the market, such as "edamame", "green bean" and "edamame". These beans are different in color, size and shape. Although edamame is delicious, remember to cook it thoroughly before eating it.

The practice of cold edamame:

Material preparation: edamame, salt, cooking oil, star anise, cold boiled water, cold soy sauce, etc.

1, wash the edamame and remove the head and tail.

2. Boil the water in the pot (be sure to boil it, otherwise the edamame will turn yellow easily), add a spoonful of salt, a little cooking oil and an star anise, add edamame and cook (about 8~ 10 minutes, if you are not sure whether it is cooked, you can try one) without covering the lid.

3. Remove it and quickly pour it into the cold boiled water. Pour in the cold sauce and stir well. Mix in the cold sauce for half an hour before eating, and stir it halfway. )

4, boiled edamame must be boiled in water before putting edamame, without cover. In order to prevent the edamame from turning yellow, it is not necessary to add salt when it is cold, because it has been put when it is cooked, and the cooked edamame tastes better when cooked with cold boiled water.
