Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups shelled edamame fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup carrot julienne or shredded
  • 1 cup cabbage finely shredded
  • 1 cup English or Persian cucumber diced
  • 2 green onions thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce or tamari for GF option
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Method
 

  1. If using frozen edamame, defrost them by placing in a colander under running water until thawed.
  2. Bring a pot of water to boil and add the edamame. Cook for about 3–5 minutes or according to package instructions, then drain and cool.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the cooled edamame with shredded carrots, cabbage, diced cucumber, green onions, and chopped cilantro.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, extra virgin olive oil, rice vinegar, maple syrup (or honey), and grated ginger until well combined.
  5. Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss until well coated. Cover and let sit for at least 10–15 minutes.
  6. Just before serving, give the salad another quick toss and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
