  • *Purchase edamame that is precooked—you will be able to tell, because if you bite into it once it has thawed, it should be pleasant tasting and easy to chew. If the edamame is not precooked, prior to making the recipe, boil the edamame for 4 to 5 minutes in salted water or heat it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes until soft.
  • TO STORE: Refrigerate hummus in an airtight container with plastic pressed over the hummus' surface for 3-5 days. It may brown slightly, but will still taste delicious.
