directions

To make the edamame spread, add the shucked edamame, cilantro, green onions, melted Crystal Margarine, and salt into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.

Place a small pot on the stove and bring water, champagne vinegar, sugar, and salt to a boil. Stir to dissolve the sugar and salt. Ensure the sliced onions are in a heat-safe container. Once boiled, pour the vinegar solution over the onions. Let them sit until cooled before serving.

To assemble the sandwich, add a generous layer of the edamame spread onto a slice of bread. Add pickled onions, avocado, and other toppings (cucumber, sprouts) as desired. Place a second layer of bread on top and slice the sandwich in half.
