Shelled edamame recipes?

I am trying to clear out the freezer.

We have a bag of shelled edamame that has been around forever. I think I originally intended to use it as a replacement for double shelled broad beans in that Spanish tapas classic of broad beans stir fried with finely minced bacon and shallots. Still think that would be a rather nice thing to do with them, but any other ideas as I have quite a lot of the stuff?

    Like you, I had some extra edamame once that needed eating. I threw about 200-250g of it, a little extra chicken broth and about a tablespoon of curry powder into https://skinnytaste.com/cream-of-zucchini-soup-1-ww-point/. The edamame upped the protein and made the soup a little heartier. Everyone in my house really liked it.

    I guess I am pretty simple. I throw a cup of frozen edamame in my lunch container when packing it in the morning. I heat it up for about 3 minutes. I love them just like that...had them today!! :)

    Personally, I like them as a snack with a little soy sauce and rice (or malt or apple cider) vinegar, and a sprinkle of coarse salt.

    We use them in quick stir fry meals for a protein source, usually with noodles, mushrooms, zucchini & green onion. My husband includes them in homemade fried rice sometimes also.

    Edited to add: There's a fresh cold wrap sandwich I found on Pinterest years ago that has shelled edamame in it. I love it. http://kblog.lunchboxbunch.com/2011/02/vegan-lunchbox-easy-hummus-spiral-wraps.html

    You can make dip out of edamame, though my favorite thing is just to roast it with some smoked paprika until it’s crispy.

    I had the same thing, edamame in the freezer at a surplus, a couple of months ago and made this dip/spread.

    I put it in jars and made my first attempt at water bath canning (successfully). It’s so good on crackers, or pretty much anywhere! Where the recipe calls for chilli paste I used a generous dollop of homemade harissa.

    I’ll definitely use the recipe again when I’ve used up the batch.
