What are
Edamame
?

Edamame are unique soybeans that are harvested at the green stage. They are similar to boiled peanuts in that they are boiled in salty water and eaten as a snack (eat the beans, leave the pods).

Frozen edamame are readily available in Asian and health food stores, and now fresh and/or fresh, organic edamame are occasionally seen in the marketplace.

With the amazing health benefits of soy, we encourage you and your customers to explore and enjoy this new specialty food.


 

 

Wannamaker Seeds is a third generation specialty crops farm and seed business in rural Calhoun County, South Carolina. We are pleased to offer you a selection of traditional and unique edamame varieties that grow well in the United States.  For edamame as sweet as sugar, try Korean Black. For traditional edamame as you would be served in an oriental restaurant, try our most popular variety Midori Giant. Finally, if you are someone who believes “variety is the spice of life” try one of our popular sampler packs - we have 3,4, and 5-variety sampler packs available. Consult our MAP to see what variety works best for you, or contact us and we will be happy to assist you. 

2007 was a pivotal year in the evolution of edamame. We witnessed an explosive interest in our seed for commercial production of edamame in the United States. The overwhelming percentage of frozen edamame sold in the United Sates is imported from southeast Asia, but there is a growing interest in US-grown product. Also more mainstream products like vegetable medleys are incorporating edamame into the blend as consumers seek more healthy options. These changes are exciting and positive. We hope they continue.
