Salt-and-Pepper Edamame (Soybeans in the Pod)Romulo Yanes

Edamame are fun to eat, the slightly fuzzy bright-green pods tickle your lips as you gently suck the beans into your mouth. Provide bowls for the empty pods.

Cooks' notes:

• Peppered salt may be made 1 week ahead and kept in an airtight container at cool room temperature.
• Edamame may be cooked 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before tossing with peppered salt.
