edamame
and didn't want to invest in a large bag of them at my local wholesale club without trying out a smaller bag first. While shopping at
Aldi's
while in the frozen food section I noticed that they had a good size bag of
Edamame
for under $2. I was sold!
Even though
I'm not a spicy food type of person. I do enjoy the spicy sweet combination. I found several recipes. However, didn't find any that really caught my attention. I mix some of my favorite ingredients together and I was so surprised at how delicious this meal taste. I love that it doesn't take long to make and is perfect as an afternoon snack or a dinner side. Trust me, you will love this recipe!
Have you tried
edamame

Sweet + Spicy Edamame Recipe
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups frozen edamame in their shell
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic, finely minced
- 1 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
INSTRUCTIONS
- Cook the edamame according to package directions.
- In a small bowl, mix together the oyster sauce, soy sauce, water, honey, and red pepper flakes.
- Heat sesame oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Once heated, add the garlic. Cook the garlic until fragrant to avoid burning.
- Add in the sauce mixture and raise the heat to medium. Let cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce reduces to a glaze, about 5-7 minutes. Once you reach the desired glaze consistency, add in the cooked edamame and toss well.
- Plate edamame. Pour any glaze left on top of the edamame or put in a small prep dish.

Mmmm, these look delicious. I don't eat edamame often, I find that I like the motion of peeling and eating. The sweet and spicy recipe is very appealing as I love spicy food!
ReplyDeleteIs edamame like peas (unpeeled of course)? Can I use the recipe with peas? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYes! This would be yummy with peas as well.
DeleteI've usually had these mixed in with other vegetables. I think this is a nice way of having them as a meal too! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of a dish from Wagamamas! Very simple yet tasty! I love edamame beans :-) x

ReplyDeleteI love Edamame and can't wait to try it your way. I ADORE spicy foods and have to say I have never had spicy edamame! Time to try something new!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds delicious, unfortunaly my stomach doesn't play well with spicy food. I think I am the only one in the family with a weak stomach.
ReplyDeleteI have never tried edamame but it looks like something I'd love. Im a big time begin eater.

Mmmm am a little confused. Are these relative of string beans?
ReplyDeleteI love edamame. They are so good for you and low calorie. I never thought about making sweet and spicy, but I will now. I usually just use sea salt.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh, I like the idea of throwing honey on it too! Normally I'll use Sriracha and soy sauce and it's a bit too spicy!
ReplyDeleteI have to say I've had it once and didn't care for it. It wasn't prepared to taste good. I will have to give your recipe a try. It sounds yummy.
ReplyDeleteEdamame is one of my favorite snacks. I usually just eat them with salt, but I may have to try this recipe soon. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis was fantastic! I usually eat edamame with sea salt, but get sick of it long before I get thru the package. This was delicious and I enjoyed it to the very end. It will become my nighttime snack at least a couple days a week. Thanks!
