Comments
Edamame is reliable at all Charlotte grocers, though frozen is the norm and thawing takes time the stated 5 minutes does not account for—budget 15 to 20 minutes total. The ingredient list is cheap and available: olive oil, lemon, salt, garlic, and hot sauce are pantry staples, so cost per serving lands well under $2. The real caveat is yield: two servings of dip is a side for one meal or an appetizer for a small gathering, not a meal itself. It keeps for two days refrigerated and reheats gently, making it useful for grazing.
