Bam! Pow! Get King Kong strong! This salad is a knockout of nutrition. On a side note, most people think you can eat edamame beans raw, but they need to be cooked in order to release all the nutrients, and to help them digest easier.

Directions

  1. To prepare edamame beans, bring 3 cups water to a boil. Drop in frozen edamame beans and quickly blanch for 1-2 minutes. Immediately immerse in cold ice water. Drain.
  2. To make dressing, whisk together vinegar, maple syrup and salt in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in olive oil to emulsify.
  3. Right before serving, in large bowl combine all ingredients. Toss to coat.
