Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces edamame (in pods, frozen or fresh)
  • 1 tablespoon chili crisp
  • 1 tablespoon vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon tamari
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon agave syrup
  • 1 small clove garlic (minced, pressed, or finely grated)
  • pinch salt

Method
 

  1. Put about an inch of water into a pot with a steamer basket or insert. Bring to a boil.
  2. Add frozen or fresh edamame, cover, and steam until bright, tender, and warmed throughout. (If using frozen edamame, it will only take about 3 minutes. If fresh, it will take 8 to 10 minutes.)
  3. While the edamame is steaming, combine chili crisp, vegan mayonnaise, tamari, rice vinegar, agave syrup, and garlic with a whisk in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Once the edamame is fully cooked, add it to the mixing bowl, and toss with a spoon to fully combine it with the sauce. Finish with a sprinkling of salt, and serve.

Notes

- For extra heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
- Ensure edamame is well-drained after steaming to prevent a watery sauce.
- Storage: Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days. The flavors deepen overnight!
- If your sauce seems to separate, whisk it vigorously right before adding the edamame to re-emulsify it.
