Edamame Salad

Labels: , , , ,


We don't have AC since Friday and it won't be fixed until tomorrow. Yesterday was a tiny bit comfortable because of the rains and cooler temperature but today it is warm making me lethargic and not willing to lift a finger or I will sweat an ocean. Cooking an elaborate meal or going out to eat doesn't sound appealing. Lunch was rescued by frozen edamame (soy beans) which I boiled and made into a refreshing salad and paired with vegetable gyoza. Simply delicious!

Edamame Salad
1 package frozen (or fresh) shelled edamame
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons wasabi paste, more or less to taste
1 cup shredded well chilled cucumber or daikon radish
1 sheet roasted nori, torn into small pieces
salmon or lumpfish red caviar
  • Boil edamame according to package directions. Drain and rinse with ice cold water.
  • In a medium bowl, mix soy sauce and wasabi. Add nori and cooked edamame and mix well.
  • Divide into 4 individual bowls. Top with shredded cucumber or daikon and sprinkle with roe. Serve cold.
