Edamame Spinach Soup FAQs
Can I Make Instant Pot Spinach Edamame Soup In A Regular Soup Pot?
Absolutely, though it’ll take a bit longer. Just simmer until all the flavors marry beautifully and the veggies are tender to your liking.
Can I use more peas instead of edamame?
Yes, peas, please! If you are making the edamame spinach soup you can certainly add in more peas. They’re a sweet substitute if you’re fresh out of edamame or if you just prefer their flavor. Peas also have a good amount of protein but you may need to double the amount per serving to get the protein value.
Can I eliminate rice and add more pasta, or vice versa?
Go for it! This soup is all about flexibility. Barley, farro, or even quinoa make great stand-ins and add a lovely texture.
Can I Use A Stovetop Pressure Cooker Instead of An Instant Pot?
No worries. If you don’t have an Instant Pot a regular stovetop pressure cooker or even a deep pot will do the trick; just adjust cooking times accordingly. Our Instant Pot spinach edamame soup is a breeze to make in a pot, dutch oven, stovetop pressure cooker, or any other way you might think of.
Can I freeze this soup?
Sure thing! This soup freezes beautifully. Just thaw, and reheat, and it’s as good as when you first made it.
