There is also a slight difference in protein content per 100 grams of different edamame. Fresh edamame kernels are 14.6 grams, edamame with pods 12.9 grams, and frozen edamame kernels are 12.5 grams.

❶Boiled podsDirect consumption or cold seasoning: boiled edamame with flavored salt. ❷ Stir fry with other ingredients: scrambled eggs with edamame. ❸ Grind into refried beans for dessert: Avocado edamame cauliflower puree.

Xia Ziwen suggested that for fresh edamame, the pods should be wide and large, green in color, not withered and yellowed, and the more prominent the edamame kernels in the pods are, the better, which means the edamame kernels are thick and full. Moisture is sufficient.
