Edamame Salad with Homemade Garlic Cilantro Vinaigrette image

This bright summer salad showcases farm fresh local produce such as tomatoes, corn, cilantro, garlic, jalapenos, and onion, as well as its star ingredient: fresh edamame. Experimenting with different ways to prepare the delicious edamame we grow on my family farm, I stumbled upon this cold salad combination and it has been a huge hit. I'm sure that frozen produce can be substituted for many of the fresh ingredients this recipe calls for; however, you can't beat the taste of fresh local produce. Remember to frequent area farmer's markets whenever the season permits!

Time 52m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 ears corn, husks and silk removed
8 cups fresh edamame (in shell)
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
2 large ripe tomatoes, diced
2 small onions, finely chopped
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 jalapeno, cut in half and seeded
¾ cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot half full with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Add corn cobs and return to a boil. Cook until corn is softened but still firm, about 5 minutes. Remove from pot; rinse with cold water until cool enough to handle. Cut kernels from the cob with a sharp knife; place into a large mixing bowl.
  • Place edamame into a large pot; pour in 2- to 3-inches of water. Cover; bring to a boil. Steam edamame until shells are softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain; let cool. Squeeze the center of each pod to pop the edamame out into a bowl.
  • Mix edamame, black beans, tomatoes, and onion into the corn kernels; season with salt and pepper.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; place jalapeno skin side up on the baking sheet.
  • Roast jalapeno in the preheated oven until outer skin is charred, about 5 minutes; mince with a sharp knife.
  • Combine olive oil, garlic, roasted jalapeno, lemon juice, cilantro, balsamic vinegar, and cumin in a bowl; whisk until well mixed. Pour over vegetable mixture; stir until vegetables are coated.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover edamame. I also like to add other vegetables to it, such as chopped cucumber, bell pepper, or zucchini.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The salad was still delicious, but I think it would have been even better with the cilantro.
