Sweet & Tangy Edamame

Super quick healthy-ish recipe time!! 
This edamame is irresistibly sweet, tangy, and somewhat spicy... You won't be able to stop eating them. Even my kids were chowing down. 




  • 1 bag o' frozen Edamame 
  • 2 cups Canola Oil
  • 1/4 tsp powdered ginger
  • 1/4 tsp powdered garlic
  • 1 tbsp raw sugar
  • 1/4 tsp tajin
  • Pinch o' salt
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne or hot chili peppers
  • 1/4 tsp sesame oil


Put your oil in medium sized pot and get it hot. 

While you are waiting, add all of the above dry ingredients into a separate bowl and mix them together.  If you haven't ever used Tajin before, you are missing out my friends. It is a staple in my household for all things that need flavor- chicken, rice, corn, chips, popcorn, broccoli, avocados... you name it, Tajin is delicious on it. Here are a few other recipes where Tajin is used: 

Tomatillo Hummus recipe
Taquitos 
Zesty Avocado Turkey Sammy 


Edamame pods do NOT take long to fry:  60-90 seconds tops! Once your oil is hot and ready, fry them in handfuls for 1 minute. 

Transfer them to a few paper towels (remove some of the oil) and then into a large bowl. Add your sesame oil and your dry rub, and coat your fried edamame.  

Done.
