Where it comes from
Borrowed from Japanese 枝(えだ)豆(まめ) (edamame, literally “stem beans”).
noun edamames
- Fresh green soybeans boiled as a vegetable. When Americans started eating more sushi in the 1980s, edamame also became more popular. More than 95 percent of the edamame consumed in the US comes from China, but domestic production of the edible green soybean is on the rise.
