Equipment

  • Pot

Ingredients

  • 1 pound (0.45 kg) green soybeans
  • moderate salt
  • 20 peppercorns
  • 2 star anise
  • 1 segment of cinnamon
  • 4 bay leaves
  • 3 dried peppers

Instructions

  • Scrub the edamame several times to remove the fluff and impurities on the surface of the edamame.
  • Prepare five spices, including peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, dried chili, and bay leaf. Add water to the pot, add five spices, salt, and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Pour the edamame and cook for about 12 minutes over medium heat. Do not cover the lid during the cooking process. The edamame color will easily turn yellow. When the time is up, turn off the fire, do not take edamame out of the pot, soak in the pot for 1 hour before eating.

Notes

Cook green soybeans without the lid, so the green soybeans color will easily turn yellow. Green soybeans are more fragrant after soaking in five-spice soup for an hour.
