City Bakerys Edamame Spread Recipes

Steps:

• Place the edamame, onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, miso, salt, chili paste and pepper into the bowl of a food processor and process for 15 seconds. Stop to scrape down the sides of the bowl and process for another 15 to 20 seconds. With the processor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Once all of the oil has been added, stop, scrape down the bowl and then process another 5 to 10 seconds. Taste and adjust seasoning, as desired. Serve with chips or crackers. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
• Place the edamame and water into a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 4 to 6 minutes. Drain any excess water and serve as is or salted.

Steps:

• Boil edamame in salted water until tender, 8 minutes. Transfer to an ice-water bath; drain. Puree in a food processor with cottage cheese, cilantro, serrano, lime juice, oil, 3 tablespoons water, cumin, and salt until creamy. Serve with a drizzle of olive oil and carrots for dipping.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan of boiling salted water, cook the edamame and garlic until edamame are tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
• In a food processor, puree edamame, garlic, lemon zest and juice, oil, and 1/2 cup water until very smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl. If needed, thin by adding water one tablespoon at a time. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 day. (If needed, add additional water.) Serve with radishes and crackers.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add the soybeans and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
• In a food processor, pulse together the soybeans and vinegars. With the machine running, add the oil in a slow stream. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with rice crackers -- either the discs or warped sheets. Ilene Rosen, the savory chef at City Bakery, calls this her version of rice and beans.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the edamame with the olive oil to coat in a medium bowl. In a separate small bowl, mix the Parmesan and garlic powder with some salt and pepper. Add the Parmesan mixture to the edamame mixture and toss.
• Spread the edamame on a rimmed baking sheet and bake, turning once halfway through, until the cheese just starts to brown, 10 to15 minutes. Store in an airtight container.
