Wash peeled edamame, boil in boiling water for 10~ 15 minutes, and then take it out. Cooking time should not be too long or too short. If boiled too short, the edamame will be pinched; if boiled too long, the edamame will be soft and rotten, and its color will be better.

But at the same time, be careful not to cover the pot for cooking, otherwise the edamame will turn yellow, and don't take it out in a hurry after turning off the fire. Let the edamame continue to soak until it cools naturally. You can put the cooked edamame in the refrigerator for a while before eating.

Can edamame be eaten if it is not cooked? It is best not to eat it for the following reasons:

1. Soybean is rich in protein, but there are many kinds in protein, and some kinds in protein are not absorbed by human body. Therefore, if people eat raw soybeans, it is easy to burden the gastrointestinal tract, which may lead to indigestion and even some toxic reactions.

2. Soybeans belong to legumes, and the hemagglutinin contained in them can agglutinate red blood cells in the blood, which may cause blood clots after human ingestion, and hemagglutinin can only be destroyed after thorough heating, so soybeans can't be eaten if they are not cooked, which is not good for the body.

3 How can edamame be regarded as mature edamame with bright green appearance and wide pod shape? Among them, the more beans, the fuller the better. Generally, there are three or four pods of edamame.

2. The later the edamame is picked, the more mature it is. The early-maturing edamame will be more brittle to eat, while the late-harvested edamame will be softer to eat.

3. The maturity of edamame can also be seen from the fluff on the pod. Generally speaking, red Mao Mao beans are more fragrant and white Mao Mao beans are more delicious.

What should I pay attention to when eating edamame? 1, edamame contains unhealthy enzymes. If it is not cooked directly, it may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, which may lead to poisoning in severe cases. Therefore, it is best to cook the edamame before eating it. Don't eat edamame directly.

2. Soybean is a food with high purine content in bean products. Some patients with gout, uremia and allergies to soybeans are not recommended to eat, otherwise it will increase the metabolic burden and allergies of the kidneys.

3. The factors in edamame are raffinose and stachyose. The combination of these substances will produce carbon dioxide gas, so the human body will have abdominal distension after eating it, so edamame should not be eaten more.
