I'd think of fino sherry, but also a lighter Federspiel Grüner Veltliner
from Austria to exploit its green pea character. We eat edamame quite
often because our son loves them and they're one of three green foods
that he'll eat right now (with fresh spinach and pickles), but I confess
to mostly drinking water or chilled sake with them.
