Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Edamame (in pod, fresh or frozen)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
- 2 tablespoons Mirin (sweet rice wine)
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (fresh, grated)
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons Water (for cornstarch slurry)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon Green onions (sliced for garnish, optional)
Instructions
1. If using frozen edamame, bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the frozen edamame and cook for 4-5 minutes, or according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Set it aside.
3. Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
4. Once simmering, stir the cornstarch slurry to recombine and then slowly pour it into the saucepan while whisking continuously. Allow the sauce to thicken for about 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
5. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the sesame oil and swirl to coat the pan.
6. Add the cooked edamame pods to the skillet and toss to warm them through, about 2 minutes.
7. Pour the prepared teriyaki sauce over the edamame and stir until evenly coated.
8. Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the teriyaki edamame to a serving bowl.
9. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions on top for garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
