Ingredients(4)

Frozen young soybean pods (edamame in shell)140 g
Honey, wildflower1.3 tbsp (28 g)
Toasted black and white sesame seeds0.5 tsp (1 g)
Maldon sea salt0.25 tsp

Instructions

1

Bring a medium pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add a generous pinch of salt.

2

Drop in the frozen edamame pods. Boil for 3–5 minutes until the pods are tender and the beans inside have plumped up. You are looking for a vibrant, bright green color.

3

Drain the edamame thoroughly in a colander, allowing the residual steam to escape for 30 seconds.

4

Transfer the hot pods to a serving bowl. Immediately drizzle with the honey, tossing quickly so the warmth of the beans makes the honey fluid, coating the shells in a glossy, light sheen.

5

Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds and a pinch of flaky Maldon salt. Serve immediately while still warm, encouraging guests to pop the beans directly from the shell using their teeth.
