My favorite way to have edamame is to steam the pods with salt and yuzu juice! If you haven't had yuzu you're missing out! You can also just toss the shelled edamame with the yuzu juice and salt as well. Yuzu is a lumpy lemon looking fruit from Japan, but it's flavor (while sour like a lemon) is EXTREMELY unique and just out of this world delicious on edamame! In the summer they make yuzu shaved ice in Japan and it's SO SO good.
@ReSprout omgosh it's so good! It's not like a standard lemon flavor--it's got it's own unique citrus like flavor! I've also been to a Japanese restaurant where they used the powdered dry peel mixed with cumin and salt as a dry dip for tempura! I highly recommend it! ❤️
there is an abandoned farm next to my house and these things still grow in rows thirty years later. They usually just rot so I figured I may as well eat them.
Oh cool she made it sound like they were annuals then I will just leave my plants out there after I harvest them! And then they come back in the spring right? That's amazing this is exciting news for me!!🎉😂❤🙏🌿 Thanks buddy! ❤️
@@EMERALDJAYNE Yes, they are annuals, but it sounds like they are self-seeding in the case of @emmy8628. If no one is harvesting them, the seeds (the soybeans/edamame) are dropping to the ground and growing the next spring.
They are super easy to grow! I've not had any major pest issues yet. I think the hardest part is really the shelling and harvesting when it's all done. But a couple movies help with that. 😉
I've researched about making Natto. It is always about soybeans. I don't want all the carbs that are with fully developed soybeans but I heard Natto can be made with edamame. So, I ordered the seeds and I will try this out this summer.
I was JUST planning on starting some soon! I tend to go long bouts without eating edamame, then once I have it again, I always want a constant supply 🤤
I love edamame and just started some indoors yesterday. I’m excited to find this video on your channel because I didn’t have good luck trying them a couple years ago.
I love edamame and have a hard time finding frozen shelled (unless I trek to the Asian market two towns over). You've definitely encouraged me to give this a try!
Thanx for your video! I saw the seeds in the store & ld just eaten some edamame in my dinner the night before (in my hospital food, no less!!) I love edamame & decided, WHY NOT?!! So it's been growing in 2 buckets, surprisingly... We've had horrible weather this year - endless rain since May & no summer at all, except for about 6 random days : ( It's now Sept & it's 90+°& still raining on & off. I realized I wasn't sure when to harvest. I guess it was last week & NOW : D !! Can't wait to eat them, thanx again ~
It's SO NICE to see you again!! I don't eat a lot of this bean. My husband worked for Cargill on their soy bean plant for over 20 years and smelling them cook daily just kind of turns you off to them. However, they have great benefits health wise. I eat them occasionally and when I do I ask myself why don't I eat them more often. Thank you for the video/upset. I might have to try growing some since it's one of our state's cash crops.
Thank you for the new video on edamame. I love it but had not considered it as a crop to grow. You video has made it a crop for my list for next year. I also saw your composting area and would love a video on your system, it looks neighborhood friendly and this is something that I have to keep in mind when planning for my compost area. Have a wonderful evening.
It's a great crop to grow if you're looking to save money definitely! I always tell people to start with the expensive crops if that's one of the main reasons you're gardening. Berries, herbs, edamame, all expensive at the store. Potatoes not so much. Thanks for the +1 on the compost bin. You're not the first to ask!
I bought 4 small plants and put them about 18" apart. They are grown together and have lots of pods,, so I am curious as to why you planted seeds so close together.
Hi Bob, there's a HUGE variation in spacing for edamame, from 2" up to 24". Don't ask me why! Utah State University here has it at 2". extension.usu.edu/archive/what-is-edamame-and-should-i-grow-it Since my garden is small, when I see these ranges, I always opt for tight spacing. Keeps the weeds out too. I've always planted my edamame this tight and have had great luck with it. It's very productive!
@@ReSprout Gotcha, thanks! I bought a fee plants and tag said 18”. Looking like time to harvest, so on to the last part of tour video ;). Thanks for it! I will save some beans and have free plants next year!
18"?? That's crazy! Maybe it grows differently than the variety I have and needs more lateral space. Are you sure you're not looking at the ROW spacing? Cuz I could see 18" between rows.
@@ReSprout First time planting edamame for us. Maybe 18” suggestion was for rows, (I think tag just said “spacing”) but our plants were probably 18-20” in diameter each. We planted individually (as if tomatoes or peppers). Mostly foliage tho. Beans all inside near stalks - couldn’t see them without pulling back lot of leaves.
I LOVE edamame and I'm always looking for new recipes! Share with us your favorite ways to prepare edamame. Have any harvest tips? Let's hear it!
Cool

@@threemoonscottage1526 I'll have to try that! I've heard of yuzu, but I don't think I've ever had it!

You've convinced me, I'm going to try to grow these! I love edamame!! Love your humor, too. 😆

I’m Japanese, yet I didn’t know edamame leaves were edible!
Thanks for the invaluable info.

Good luck Mark! Keep us updated!
Love this video. It is super complete and well illustrated. I will plant them next year. I love steamed edama… Emma ma… 😥 edamame!!!
I messed up saying that SOOOO many times! 🤣
I was JUST planning on starting some soon! I tend to go long bouts without eating edamame, then once I have it again, I always want a constant supply 🤤
Me too! I can never get enough! I would plant 5 beds of it if I could.
I love edamame and just started some indoors yesterday. I’m excited to find this video on your channel because I didn’t have good luck trying them a couple years ago.
If you like edamame they're a great crop to grow. They're so expensive in the stores!
Hears "whacked-out edamame," hits "Subscribe." LOL!
Ahahaha! :-D
Your video and your happy attitude made me try to grow soy beans. Hope they work. Thanks.
Yay! That's why I have this channel-to inspire people to grow their own food. So that makes me very happy. :-D
Thanks. Very helpful!
I love edamame and have a hard time finding frozen shelled (unless I trek to the Asian market two towns over). You've definitely encouraged me to give this a try!
That's one of the main reasons I started growing it! It's so hard to find reliably and when you do, it's expensive!
Great video 😘
Have you ever tried fermenting edamame?
I've never tried it, but I'd be willing to! I'm always looking for more ways to cook (or not cook in this case LOL) my harvest.
Fantastic!! Thank you!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome Video! How can we get your spreadsheet!!

Yay! Glad you got to harvest. They're very easy to grow, just gotta watch the harvest date.

Oh, Donna, you're so nice! 🥰 Yes, I always think the same thing whenever I make a dish with edamame-why don't I eat this more often??
great video!
The seeds from 3 bean pods grow more 3 bean pods?! 🤯
Nature is crazy that way. Not following the rules. 🤣
Or go to papa’s house.

@@BobC59 Yeah, they like to stick close to the stalks. They're tough to spot!
EXCELLENT INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEO. THANK YOU
