This is the simplest recipe and the best for a party appetizer – it just adds a little something extra to plain ol’ edamame. It’s not that spicy trust me – from someone who doesn’t care for spicy things – but you can always adjust it to taste.
ingredients:
1 package frozen edamame
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon Ichimi Togarashi
1 teaspoon sugar
Ichimi Togarashi
In a small bowl combine the salt, ichimi togarashi and sugar. Stir well and set aside.
Boil edamame according to package, drain. Blot them dry with paper towels, just a bit – then sprinkle the seasoning on top.
Serve it and act like you worked really hard to make it.
Kid's lunches, simple dinners and a whole lot of geeky baking.
Edamame rocks.
The more you eat the more you toot!
Beans, beans, they’re good for the heart, the more you eat the more you fart.
I believe I will make this for my in between lunch snack at work, Thanks! :]
Make a homemade teriyaki sauce with a little sesame oil and the tagorashi pepper toss with edamame and it will make your day. That’s how we do it for parties and it’s a big hit.
Ah ha! There’s a spicy edamame appetizer at my favorite sushi restaurant and I’ve tried recreating it at home with little luck. My version was good but not quite the same but I think that is the spice I need to find! Adding a little sugar is genius, I will try that. Thank you!
Ditto what Maile said … in addition, add chopped garlic to taste. Onolicious!
I should really try adding spices to my edamame because I always eat them plain. However, I find that adding spices to edamame would be a waste because I eat the inside of the edamame and the spices that sick on the outside gets thrown away. Is that how you eat them?
Well, I usually put them in my mouth, then pull the outside out – leaving the beans and seasonings in my mouth. That was a weird look into my eating habits, wasn’t it? But I find that’s how most people eat edamame….
