Food review: Edamame


















Restaurant:
Sushi Delight (San Francisco)
Food description: Steamed soybeans lightly salted and served hot
Food rating: 7.5 out of 10
Times ordered: 10+

Every time I go to a sushi restaurant, I can't go without my edamame. Since I go to Sushi Delight about once a week, I can safely say that the edamame is pretty consistently decent. It's served hot rather than cold, which I prefer, and since I'm a salt-a-holic, the waiter/owner knows to serve it with a salt shaker. The soybeans look fresh and taste fresh, and you don't have to worry about pushing aside any rotten-looking ones. My one gripe, and this is a matter of personal taste, is that the soybeans are slightly too soft. I prefer edamame to be al dente : tender but crisp. Other than that, I like 'em just fine.
