What is Edamame?
Edamame beans are deep green colored, whole, immature soybeans.
They are High in protein and rich in vitamins and minerals.
They are easily available in any grocery market in the freezer section. It comes with pods and shelled.
Both types work fine for the hummus, but if you get them with the whole bean then you will need to remove the beans from the pod and discard the pods. I prefer shelled ones from Trader Joe’s from the freezer section to make this dip.
We just love edamame beans in our home and always have some of them in our freezer. It is a great after school snack for kids.
We sometimes, roast them and add it in our soups, stews, in salads or simply eat as a snack.
One of our favorite way of eating Edamame is making Hummus. It pairs so well with crackers, Vegetables and corn chips.
Hummus is one of our all-time favorite condiments. You will always find homemade hummus in our fridge. 🙂
The difference between Avocado Edamame hummus and classic hummus recipe is swapping out the chickpeas for edamame and Avocado.
Edamame hummus is a little brighter in flavor and color than traditional hummus.
