Reviews
Very nice dip the whole family loved with veggies as well as pita chips.
Amazing. My family loved it.
Love this dip. I used white miso cuz that’s what I had. I couldn’t find red chile paste so I used red chili pesto – probably about 2T with a little cayenne for some heat. Came out great.
This was too salty for me. I needed to add more edamame and chili paste to cut down on the saltiness. Next time I’ll eliminate the salt and use a bit less miso, adding more to taste. I’ll also doubled the chili paste. Everybody loved it!
I liked this dip. I’m always looking for snacks that have a little more protein, and this fit the bill. I thought it was a smidge too acidic, so I would scale back the lime juice a bit next time. I added extra miso and red chili sauce because I love both of those flavors. It was a hit!
Directions incomplete – what to do with all the ingredients? Sounds good though.
Very nice. I would advise cooking the green soybeans 15 min in water, drain. They actually tasted better as they cooked longer, and they were easier to make smooth in processor. I used 1 3/4 C cooked beans (came in a 1-lb bag). Only 2 T olive oil plus 2 T water; 1/4 teas cayenne instead of the chili paste; scarcely 1/4 clove garlic; and only 1/4 teas salt. The miso was salty enough. Everything else was as AB said. Cilantro was fabulous in this. Came out to about 20 calories per Tablespoon (like a small dollop), Chick pea hummus is about 40. Sodium came to about 1064 mg or 33 mg per T, not bad but of possible concern to some. Serve with absolutely savory crackers like Finn Crisp or Stacy’s Pita Chips; some of the whole grain crackers like Kashi or Wheat Thins are too sweet.
I made this before but a bit differently and thought I would give this one a try. It turned out great! I changed up the recipe a bit. I had a roasted red pepper left over and added it and since I did not have any miso I substituted it with tahini I had on hand for making traditional hummus. I also added a pinch of cayenne. Just the right amount of spice. There are so many ways you could edit the recipe and it would still be good. Love edamami!
Very Good! Miso was almost $10 bucks at Whole Foods, so I will be making this a lot. I found it in the dry section but you are supposed to refrigerate after opening. YUMMY and healthy :
Very nice, lower fat alternative to guacamole and much lower in carbs than hummus, which is helpful for diabetic noshers. Making low carb apps for a dinner party usually means cheese, eggs,or meat, but often they are quite high in fat. This recipe bridges the eating requirements of many more people with dietary issues.
