I believe edamame beans are more delicately flavoured, but if you like fresh beans, then you'll love this dish. And an occasional overdose of salt won't harm anyone, will it?<BR/><BR/>Clivia - you're right. A bit like your famous Swedish crayfish eating parties :)<BR/><BR/>Katie - I guess they're 'in season' later here than in France - after all, we're on a much higher latitude here. But yes, this is the old and rustic way of cooking them, in pods.. <BR/><BR/>Lobstersquad - if I with beans like <A HREF="http://nami-nami.blogspot.com/2006/08/few-dishes-inspired-by-moro.html" REL="nofollow">these El Navarrico beans</A> available, I'd be eating them straight from the can, too! <BR/><BR/>Joey - I've only had fresh edamame beans once, and cannot remember how similar or dissimilar they tasted. I believe broad beans have a somewhat bolder and rougher flavour compared to the delicate Japanese beans?Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-66640599869704436982007-09-10T13:04:00.000+03:002007-09-10T13:04:00.000+03:00This looks like a great thing to snack on...remind...This looks like a great thing to snack on...reminded me of edamame too, which I love! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-44222724102109731192007-09-10T10:44:00.000+03:002007-09-10T10:44:00.000+03:00I love that, broad beans like edamame, very intere...I love that, broad beans like edamame, very interesting.

What a wonderful (and old) idea!<BR/>I've just started eating them this year, and love them, but we don't see them at the market any longer here - May and June.

They do look a bit like edamame, is the flavor similar at all? I'm sure I would like them because I love every type of bean.
