Directions
Boil the edamame according to the direction on the package. It usually takes about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile in a small bowl, mix together all dressing ingredients until well combined.
Once the edamame is done, drain well, and rinse under cold water. Peel the shells.
In a medium size mixing bowl, add edamame and carrot.
Pour most of the dressing over, and toss to combine. Reserve 1 to 2 tablespoon.
In another bowl, toss the lettuce with reserved dressing.
Place the lettuce onto serving plates, top with seasoned edamame and carrot.
Sprinkle with more sesame seeds.
Serve.
