Instructions
Put about an inch of water into a pot with steamer basket or insert. Bring to a boil, add frozen or fresh edamame, cover, and steam until bright, tender, and warmed throughout. (If using frozen edamame, which is already cooked, it will only take about 3 minutes. If the edamame is fresh, it will take 8 to 10 minutes.)
While the edamame is steaming, combine the following with a whisk in a large mixing bowl: chili crisp, vegan mayonnaise, tamari, rice vinegar, agave syrup, and garlic.
Once the edamame is fully cooked, add it to the mixing bowl, and toss with a spoon to fully combine it with the sauce. Finish with a sprinkling of salt, and serve.
