Default Edamame (for those that were asking)

Ok, so I made this layout last night about my love of edamame and I got several people asking me what exactly edamame is!
So, here you go ladies...

First, its pronounced "Ed-a-mom-ay". Edamame is soy beans. You steam them (or at least I do) and put a bit of salt on them. Then you eat them (only the beans on the inside of the pods) and they are SUPER delicious and very nutritious. I can't describe the taste, but its not "vegetable-y" at all. Just...well... yummy!

Here's a more "offical description" from edamame.com...

Edamame is a green vegetable more commonly known as a soybean, harvested at the peak of ripening right before it reaches the "hardening" time. The word Edamame means "Beans on Branches," and it grows in clusters on bushy branches. To retain the freshness and its natural flavor, it is parboiled and quick-frozen. In East Asia, the soybean has been used for over two thousand years as a major source of protein. Edamame is consumed as a snack, a vegetable dish, used in soups or processed into sweets. As a snack, the pods are lightly boiled in salted water, and then the seeds are squeezed directly from the pods into the mouth with the fingers.

Now go out and get yourself some of this deliciousness and let me know what you think!! (p.s. you buy it frozen in the freezer section in steameady bags)
