MMMmmmm Edamame!!
This is one of the manybenefits of having a garden.
Fresh Organic Edamame lightly boiled with salt and eaten straight out of the shell.
The only thing missing is a Kirin Beer!
I get to enjoy snacking on my edamame about 12 times (I made 12 containers of edamame in shell - the rest of the soybeans I grew I shelled and froze).
Next year I will remember a few things I learned this year:
* Grow more! - 3/4 of a row is not enought
* Planting the organic dried soybeans from the HFS works just as well as from specialty seed places. I planted both this year and they both turned out great.
* Blanch the soybeans before shelling - much much easier!!
* Did I mention growing MORE next year?? :-)
