Instructions
Spicy garlic sauce
Step 1: Heat the oil in a small pan over medium-low heat. Cook the garlic until very light golden, then add everything else. Stir, simmer on low for 1 minute, and remove from the stove.
Edamame
Step 2: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the salt. Put the frozen edamame in the water. Bring it back to a boil, then cook for 2 minutes. Drain well, shaking off excess water.
Tip: The edamame is already pre-cooked; cooking it longer can dull its green color.
Toss
Step 3: Transfer the edamame to a bowl, pour over the sauce, and toss. Transfer to a serving bowl, scraping out every drop of sauce. Serve warm or at room temperature.
To eat
Step 4: Pick up a sauce-coated pod. Bite the pod so the soybeans pop into your mouth, and suck the sauce off the skin. Discard the skin and repeat.
Notes
Ingredient notes and storage
Choose edamame in the pods, preferably plain rather than brined. If using brined edamame, skip the salt in both the cooking water and the sauce.
Use another chili paste or sauce in place of sambal oelek, starting with less and adding more to taste. Light or all-purpose soy sauce can replace Japanese soy sauce; avoid dark or sweet soy sauce.
To replace mirin, use 2 teaspoons honey plus 1/4 cup chicken or vegetable stock, and simmer the sauce for longer.
Leftovers keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. Serve at room temperature or slightly warm.
