Boil the beans in a pot for about 10 minutes. Usually when you see the beans open, it means you are ready. I cooked it at home for 8 minutes, and it won't taste too bad. If you like it cooked, you can cook it for another 2 minutes, turn off the fire and soak it for a few hours before eating.

How to distinguish the quality of edamame

four

Fresh edamame is easy to cook and crisp, and tastes good. Pay attention to whether the hairy pods are fresh and whether the cuticle of the pods is shiny when buying. Fresh pods are hard, with 2-3 capsules per pod. Beans should be green or green-white, tightly wrapped by translucent seed coat (white film around seeds), squeezed by hand, and the juice will flow out. Stale edamame is often soaked in water. If the pod is yellow, fuzzy and easy to crack, the beans are peeled and separated from the seed coat, indicating that the beans are not suitable for fresh food.

Finally, I would like to remind you that cooked edamame will taste better in the refrigerator.
