Pickled Mustard Green & Edamame — a Jiangsu-Zhejiang Chinese recipe, ready in about 22 minutes. Step-by-step instructions with photos.

Ingredients

• shelled edamame (fresh or frozen, thawed)
• pickled mustard greens (‘xue cai’), rinsed and finely chopped
• fresh ginger, minced
• light soy sauce
• toasted sesame oil

Instructions

1. Blanch edamame in boiling salted water 3 minutes until bright green and just tender. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Pat dry.
2. Heat wok over medium heat. Add 10 ml (2 tsp) neutral oil. Sauté ginger 30 seconds until fragrant — do not brown.
3. Add snow greens. Stir-fry 2 minutes until moisture evaporates and aroma turns deep and savory.
4. Add edamame. Stir-fry 1 minute to warm through and combine.
5. Turn off heat. Drizzle with light soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss once — just to coat. Serve immediately while steaming gently.
