Frozen soya/edamame beans

vixtress

Does anyone know where I can get these from?
I've glanced in the supermarket and can't seem to see them, I am sure birds eye used to make them (and some supermarket brands)
I have developed a bit of an obsession with finding them.

Oh, and can anyone advise me the best thing to do with them, if I can actually locate some

Thanks, vix

I get mine from Waitrose when they have them. They don't currently have them but they do have frozen baby broad beans.

Me too - I love them but can't find them anywhere.

Don't have a Waitrose.

Oh I thought it was just my local supermarket that had stopped stocking them!!! I've been looking for them too!

Mr T do a three bean salad in a little pot for loads of pennies with them in and I wanted to make my own!

Last time I bought them it was from Mr T and I bought them to make this basil bean mash:

I had it with stuffed mushrooms, rather than fish, and it went down a treat.

I have a cook book which seems to have these as an ingredient in about 70% of the recipes - what is Mr T? our Waitrose never seems to have them.

Ayone else suggest an alternative? - not broad beans I loathe them !!!

I found them in Tesco, near the broad beans and peas in the frozen aisle. They were Birds Eye but I've just had a look on mysupermarket and they are now doing their own soya beans, 500g for £1.50. Sainsburys, Ocado and Waitrose have Birds Eye ones.

Japan Centre do them - they have online shop if you can't get to actual shop. Lots of yummy goodies there!

Pretty much any Oriental food store will have them. Japan Centre, Wing Yip, small independents....


Lovely, aren't they?
