Im splurging on saltines and 1/4'erd cheese slices. Maybe some water. NJ seems the place to be. Bon apetit.

Miso soup, so will make some adding scallions, tofu, spinach, rice noodles and a dash of Dashi for flavor.....if that doesn't fill me up, I have some fresh pico de gallo and chips to munch on...Wednesday's are multi-cultural days, right?

INGREDIENTS
1 16 ounce package frozen edamame in pods, thawed
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons tamari or soy sauce
3 cloves of garlic minced
1 inch sized knob fresh ginger peeled and grated
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds optional
lime wedge, optional
INSTRUCTIONS
Before starting this recipe, have everything prepped. It comes together in a flash!
In a small bowl combine tamarin or soy sauce, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes.

Turn on your stove's exhaust fan.
Place a large skillet over high heat - and let the pan get very hot.
Add sesame oil to the pan.
Carefully add the edamame (it can splatter) and don't stir -- allow it to sear and blister about 1-2 minutes.
Add tamari mixture and toss to combine and continue to cook until sauce coats the edamame - no more than 2-3 minutes.
Transfer edamame to a serving bowl. Optional: squeeze a wedge of lime over the edamame. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve.
