Ingredients

  • 14 oz edamame, frozen
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tsp black sesame seeds can substitute regular sesame seeds
  • 2 cloves garlic, grated on a microplane
  • 1 tsp sea salt I use Redmond's
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp coconut sugar can substitute brown sugar

Instructions

  • Cook edamame according to package directions (I boiled mine in salted water for 4-5 minutes). Drain.
  • While edamame cooks, toast sesame seeds in a small saute pan over medium heat until golden, moving them around frequently for about 4-5 minutes (watch carefully to make sure they don't burn). Transfer to a small bowl/dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, sesame oil and grated garlic until well combined.
  • After edamame has been drained, add it to the same bowl and toss gently to combine.
  • Add sea salt, coconut sugar, and about half of the toasted sesame seeds, and toss gently to combine. Add additional sea salt to taste.
  • Transfer contents of bowl to a serving plate or bowl, and top with additional toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy!
