Edamame Pasta
Edamame is in season for summer and finding popularity all around the world! Now, we can find it frozen everywhere! East meets west dish today. When tossing the pasta with the sauce, the residual heat will continue to cook the pasta slightly, so I recommend cooking the pasta for about one minute less than the cooking time on the package.

- Cook the pasta in a large pot filled with salted water.(put about 2tbs of salt for 2 litter (34oz) water)

- Mix in the chopped edamame beans, butter, wasabi paste, and soy sauce for the pasta sauce.

- Add the whole edamame beans as a garnish on top of the pasta before serving. Dry white wine would go really well with this dish.
