How to store fresh edamame rice

In daily life, people prefer to eat edamame rice, especially in the hot summer, when people's appetite will be affected. At this time, you can have some steamed edamame rice. Edamame rice can also be a casual snack. There are certain requirements for storing fresh edamame rice. Common storage methods include refrigeration, freezing, and frying in oil and then freezing. Let’s talk specifically about how to preserve fresh edamame rice.

1. Refrigeration preservation method: Put the edamame into a plastic bag and seal it. Find a thick plastic bag and put it directly into the refrigerator for preservation. It will remain fresh when you take it out later. It can basically be kept fresh for a month. This method is a good choice if you only need to save it for a short period of time. It is not recommended to open the head when sealing it, as this will easily mix the flavor with other dishes and make it no longer fresh.

2. Direct freezing method: Put the peeled edamame into a fresh-keeping box or a large beverage bottle (beverage bottle is best) so that it is convenient to take out when eating. Even if it is frozen together, just knock the bottle a few times. Put the packed edamame in the refrigerator to freeze. Take it out when you want to eat it. It is fresh and delicious, very good. You may wish to try more in the summer. This method can preserve food for a slightly longer time than refrigeration. 3. How can the blanching and freezing method preserve the edamame that is abundant in summer until winter? If you want to preserve it for a long time, here is a good method:

When edamame is about to go out of season, try to buy more so that you can eat them comfortably in the winter. First peel the edamame kernels, then boil a pot of water, pour the peeled edamame kernels into the pot and blanch them for about 30 seconds, then pick them out and drain them. After the moisture has dried, put it in a plastic bag and place it in the freezer of the refrigerator. Remember, it must be the frozen layer. In this way, when winter comes, you can take it out and cook it at any time, and take it out and thaw it when you want to eat it. It can be stored for up to one year. However, some netizens reported that this storage method will cause the thawed edamame to have an unpleasant smell. This is actually caused by the refrigerator being out of power for a long time during the storage process, causing the edamame to thaw. 4. Stir-fry and freeze method: Wash the peeled edamame with clean water and drain. Pour a proper amount of oil into the wok, the amount of oil is the same as that for normal cooking. After heating the oil, pour in the edamame and stir-fry slightly, then remove from the wok and let it cool completely. Put the cooled edamame into plastic bags, with enough in each bag for one meal. Then tie the bag tightly and put the plastic bag into the freezer of the refrigerator. Keep it frozen and take it out to thaw when you want to eat. This method can also preserve the beans for up to a year. The preserved edamame are not prone to change in taste or color, but they are still green and tender when used for cooking. This is a better preservation method. Notes on storing edamame: 1. Whether blanching or frying, the edamame must be "killed" to block its growth possibility, so as to retain the nutrients of the edamame for as long as possible. 2. The processed edamame cannot contain raw water and must be packaged in bags and stored in airtight containers to isolate them from air before they can be stored in the freezer. 3. Take as much frozen edamame as you want to eat. Avoid thawing and freezing them repeatedly, as this will destroy the nutrition and taste of the edamame.
