Roasted edamame salad delivers crunch, fresh herbs, and sesame flavor. It’s the perfect blend of edamame and fresh vegetables. For this vibrant salad, we roast shelled edamame alongside corn kernels, red bell pepper, and green onions. Then, we toss these vegetables in a mild, yet nutty sesame vinaigrette.
We love bringing this salad to family gatherings, potlucks, and picnics. For a quick lunch or dinner, we toss it on rice bowls alongside a little baked tofu. And, we’ll also pair this up with our favorite sandwich. This salad is extremely versatile.
How To Make This Recipe
We begin by preheating our oven to 400°F. While the oven preheats, we toss our shelled edamame, sweet corn, bell pepper, onion, garlic, ginger together in peanut oil. Once everything is coated in peanut oil, we pour our edamame blend into our baking pan. Then, we season everything with a little salt and black pepper.
Roast Edamame Blend
Next, we roast our vegetables in the oven for 10 minutes or so–just until the edamame starts to brown. At this point, we remove this from the oven and cool for 30 minutes. When we plan to serve this salad right away, we’ll allow our vegetables to chill in the refrigerator for the last 20 minutes.
As our vegetables cool, we’ll make our roasted edamame salad dressing. To do so, we’ll grab a small mixing bowl and whisk together our rice vinegar, sesame oil, and parsley.
Ready to Serve
Once cool, we toss our edamame blend with our dressing and sesame seeds. Then, we give it a little taste and adjust seasonings as desired. We enjoy serving this roasted edamame salad chilled, so we’ll pop it back into the refrigerator until serving time.
