Dadacha Mame

山形県·農産物

Dadacha Mame

Once boiled, it releases a soft, sweet aroma reminiscent of corn. When you bite into a bean pressed from its pod, a rich sweetness and umami burst forth—this is Dadacha Mame, the brand edamame that Tsuruoka is proud of. 'Dadacha' means 'father' in the Shonai dialect. There are various theories regarding the origin of its name, including an anecdote where a feudal lord asked, 'Whose dadacha made these beans?' It is said that the roots of this variety trace back to the late Meiji era, when a single woman carefully selected and cultivated the seeds. Though modest in appearance, its aroma and sweetness are exceptional. It is a treasure of summer in Tsuruoka, available only during its short seasonal window. Please enjoy it freshly boiled.
