Growing edamame in your garden is a rewarding and delicious experience! Here’s a simple guide to get you started:
Choose your seeds
Prepare the ground:
Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil.
Improve the soil by adding compost or organic fertilizer.
Sowing:
Sow seeds directly into the soil after the last frost.
Plant them at a depth of about 2.5 cm.
Leave a space of around 30 cm between each plant.
Care and maintenance:
Water regularly to keep the soil moist.
Avoid excess water to prevent root rot.
Mulch around plants to conserve moisture and reduce weeds.
Harvest :
Edamame are ready to harvest when the pods are full and green.
Harvest them before the pods become too hard.
Cook and enjoy:
Steam the edamame for about 5 minutes.
Serve them hot with a pinch of salt or dip them in soy sauce.
Good culture and bon appetit!
