130131 – soy & ginger roasted edamame
This was so easy to make and tasted great. And…. it was the first ‘recipe’ I made from scratch myself!
The edamame come out slightly crunchy and full of flavor. The minced ginger are especially tasty.
- 8 oz frozen shelled edamame
- 1 T minced fresh ginger (essential!)
- 1 1/2 T soy sauce
- 1 T canola oil
- salt and fresh ground pepper
- preheat oven to 375 F.
- rinse the edamame in a sieve under lukewarm water to thaw. pat dry in a paper or clean dishtowel.
- in a small bowl, toss edamame with oil, soy sauce, and ginger.
- spread mixture evenly over baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- cook for 30-40 minutes, until they become golden, stirring every 10 minutes.
