What Is Edamame?
Edamame is the name given to young soybeans. They are very popular in the US but originate from East Asia, namely China.
The use of edamame can be dated back over 2,000 years, and has grown in popularity in various parts of the world since it was introduced to Japan.
Edamame can be used in an array of different recipes, including as appetizers on their own, in stews, soups, noodle dishes and even salads. You will most likely come across edamame if you visit a Japanese or Chinese sushi bar, as they are very popular.
