Edamame Rice

Edamame Rice Recipe

Are you getting tired of your plain brown (or white) rice looking up at you from your bowl? Try this delicious alternative!

INGREDIENTS
4 cups brown rice
1 package frozen shelled edamame soybeans
1 bottle (1.7 oz) furikake
1 bottle (7 to 8 oz) nametake mushrooms

DIRECTIONS
Cook the brown rice and edamame according to package directions. When finished, fluff the rice and layer into a large bowl with the edamame, furikake, and nametake mushrooms. Mix to combine.

NOTES
I like to roughly layer the ingredients with the rice so that it is easier and faster to mix. For the furikake, I like the wakame variety. Make sure you look for one without too much salt. The one I use is mostly wakame seaweed with just a little salt. For the nametake mushrooms you can hold back or go crazy. I personally love nametake so I go for the slightly bigger bottle and scrape every last bit into the rice!

I tried your Edamame recipe. It was a hit with my husband. I really liked the Nametake mushrooms and Furikake in the rice. Soo tasty! Lucky they are readily available here in Hawaii. Soy beans are healthy and tasty as well.

Thanks for the recipe! My family loved it! My son wanted to take some with him to summer fun, do you know how long it will keep unrefigerated?

Hi Rachelle,
I’m not sure exactly how long it’ll last…but I have made it in the morning, left it in the shade and then had it at lunch time. Hope this helps! :)

Great rice! Try putting a spoonful of the rice on the korean nori that comes in pouches. Yum-O!
