Edamame, or young soybeans in the pod, are sold in the frozen foods section of most supermarkets. You can also find shelled edamame, which are easy to thaw and add to recipes. If you have access to fresh fiddlehead ferns, you can use them in place of, or in combination with, the edamame. Salicornia, commonly known as beach asparagus or sea beans, would also be a lovely addition to this recipe, as would fava beans. All will need to be blanched in salted water for a few minutes then shocked in ice water before adding.

Sriracha is a chile-based hot sauce that was first produced in Thailand for use with seafood dishes. Sriracha has fairly well dominated the Asian hot sauce market in the United States in recent years. As such, it’s easy to find: almost all supermarkets will have it either in the Asian foods aisle or with the other hot sauces.
