Air fryer edamame serves as a fantastic topping for rice bowls and salads, providing a crispy and chewy texture. The recipe is quick, taking just 15 minutes if the edamame is thawed beforehand. The air fryer is essential for achieving perfectly golden brown edamame, with a unique mix of crunchiness and chewiness that traditional ovens can't replicate. The author shares a spicy variation using chili crisp, enhancing the flavor and making it an addictive snack. Overall, frozen shelled edamame is a budget-friendly, convenient ingredient that adds variety to meals.
I can pretty much always go for something in the bean category and I never get tired of these whole, tender soybeans. Bags of them in the supermarket freezer section are usually pretty cheap too.
The high heat and the way that the heat is channeled in the machine results in perfectly golden brown edamame. You get a mix of crunchy edges and pleasantly chewy middles.
These golden air fryer edamame are excellent on a rice or grain bowl, especially with a healthy drizzle of peanut sauce. It's a delicious flavor pairing.
I simply use a tablespoon of chili crisp in place of the avocado oil (I like Lao Gan Ma brand). The end result is a little tingly, deeply savory, and hard to stop eating honestly.
