Edamame

Rich in proteins and vitamins A, B, and C.

Ingredients:

Edamame, water, and pinch of salt.

Instructions:

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add edamame and continue boiling until beans are crisp-tender, about 10 minutes. To prevent overcooking, start checking for doneness approximately 7 minutes after cooking.
2. When done, run cold water over, or put in ice water, to stop cooking. Drain well; pat excess moisture off, and sprinkle with salt to taste. (Start with 1/2 teaspoon.)
3. To eat, hold pod by stem end, and slide the individual beans out with your teeth. Discard pod.
