Choosing Sides
Soy Edamame

Soy Edamame      "Soy Edamame" is available in PDF format print friendly version

Edamame (pronounced ed-ah-MAH-may) is a side with pure Japanese chic. Made from young soybeans in their pods, they're eaten in the same manner as artichoke: serve them in their pods and your guests will run their teeth down the length of the pod, squeezing the pea-like edamame into their mouths. Serve with soup, salad, or grilled pork, chicken or fish.
