I made as a side with Ellie's beef and tofu lettuce wraps (INCREDIBLE. I could only find very thin green beans in the market as it is winter. I tried to replace with frozen and not great. Next time I will use snap peas and steam with the edamame. This, like all of Ellie's recipe's I have made, is delicious and it is healthy. To the reviewer who said it lacked salt..READ..it says salt to taste duh.

My 2-year old daugher and I liked this, but my husband wasn't a huge fan. I steamed longer, but the green beans still may have been better steamed longer. I also added very little sugar and it was just enough sweet glaze.

Just a lovely tangy healthy side dish. I didn't add sugar because the rice vinegar and apricot jam gave it enough sweetness. I will make this over and over again.
