I had such a yummy lunch! Edamame Soybeans and a Mango Lassi! I just recently discovered how easy it is to make Edamame Soybeans. They were always something I enjoyed when I went to Japanese restaurants but I never considered making them at home. The last time I was at HMart, I noticed they had bags of frozen Edamame Soybeans. I bought a bag but I was pretty sure they wouldn’t taste as good as what is served at the Japanese restaurants. I WAS WRONG! They are DELICIOUS. Here is how I prepared them:
1. Boil water.
2. Throw in some salt (4 or 5 shakes of a salt shaker)
3. Throw in the Edamame Soybeans
4. Set the timer for 5 minutes.
5. After 5 minutes, drain, rinse, drain.
6. Pour the Edamame Soybeans into a bowl
7. Salt the Edamame Soybeans profusely.
8. ENJOY!!!!!!!
Just so you know, you don’t eat the pod. Instead, squeeze the pod so the beans squirt out, right into your mouth!
Oh, and just recently I read an article in a magazine that soybeans help in weight loss!
It’s easy to see why you maintain such a slender figure. There aren’t enough people in this world
who eat a healthy diet, and most people wouldn’t
eat a soybean if someone put a gun to their head.
This is ironic considering that Philly is home to
so many obese people. In my home state of Texas,
I don’t think anyone has ever HEARD of a soybean,
must less eaten one.
(Can you barbeque a soybean?…maybe then it will catch on in Dallas and Houston).
