My kids love eating it that way. After my seven year old tried it, every night when she said her prayers, she asked for God to let her have more edamame the next day.jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11126675657006287838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-60300290662542998362009-08-09T14:56:15.744-04:002009-08-09T14:56:15.744-04:00Just be a bit careful about how much soy you consu...Just be a bit careful about how much soy you consume and what kind. There are starting to be reports that some forms of soy aren't as much of a health food as previously believed, especially for women (edamame beans are not a problem!). I try to stay away from the really far out diet reports, but this one appeared in BusinessWeek: http://www.businessweek.com/2000/00_51/b3712218.htmLiz Goldsmith, EquineInkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16335463138124638275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-62647285313154149232009-08-09T03:46:51.601-04:002009-08-09T03:46:51.601-04:00The whole fun of eating them is squirting them out...The whole fun of eating them is squirting them out of their pods with your teeth.

Cut up some thin onions, maybe a bit of celery, use a bit of olive oil (Tablespoon or so.) Salt, pepper, garlic (I use Adobo), oregano or dill, just a tiny bit of sugar (brings out the flavor) then vinegar. (half as much as the oil.)
