Why is edamame pasta so much higher than soybeans when their only ingredient is soybeans?
Could it be that they are measuring the weight of dried pasta vs the weight of fresh beans?🫛
Edamame is harvested at a totally different stage of development of the plant and has a much different composition than the dried beans including higher protein content and lower carbohydrates. As the pea matures it turns nutrients received from the plant and pod into carbohydrates over its lifecycle to (in theory) power germination and regrowth, but of course we eat that lol.
