I have shelled edamame I’m going to pull out now for an afternoon snack. Thanks for the inspiration!
As a physician and environmental health specialist, I would advise putting the pods (or shelled beans) in a glass dish with a little water to steam microwave them. Plastic bags can leach chemicals when heated, even if it is a safe plastic. Food for thought, so to speak! 🙂

[…] When you purchase them frozen as a pod, it’s fun and very easy for the kids to pop the soy beans out of the pod. Literally, just squeeze the end of the pod, and the beans pop right out, giving them the snack nickname, poppers. […]

I ate the pod the first time I tried edamame, too! My friend asked what I thought of it, and I said, “It was a little fuzzy.”
My kids aren’t hooked yet, but I keep trying. They like to pop them, but not to eat them. Sigh.

I guess you ARE my daughter, because the first time I had fried shrimp at a friend’s house (I was about 8 years old), I didn’t know to not eat the tails, so I ate the whole things. The acorn doesn’t fall far from the tree. Anyway, we buy the Costco frozen edamame bag and take enough out for our meal (or snack) and just run it under water in a strainer (so the water goes out) until they are thawed. No cooking involved. I didn’t even know you were supposed to cook them.

I am laughing at the thought of you eating the WHOLE thing! I’m sure that you thought people are crazy for liking edamame after that! And so glad that your kids loved them. They really are a great, fast, high protein snack!
