I made this dish using dried edamame, similar to how you would make shiraae (tofu salad), but with less moisture, making it perfect for lunchboxes. Great for meal prep!
Recipe background: I found dried edamame at the supermarket and wanted to try something different from a salad. I wanted to enjoy edamame even when it's not summer, and I was getting tired of tofu shiraae, so I came up with this idea.

Steps

1

Soak the dried edamame in plenty of water until rehydrated. Once the beans have plumped up, boil them with salt for about 10 minutes.
2

Boil the carrot for 1 minute. Boil the hijiki for 1 minute as well. In a separate bowl, mix together all the ingredients marked with ○, making sure to dissolve the miso completely.
3

Process two-thirds of the edamame in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl and add the mixed ○ ingredients, stirring well.
4

Add the hijiki and carrot to the bowl from step 3. Just drain the hijiki in a strainer; you don't need to squeeze out all the moisture. Mix everything together.
