Whether you're in Hawaii or on the mainland, my mom - who was born & raised in Honolulu - makes the BEST Homemade Spam Musubi, & this is her recipe.
In our opinion, there are 2 key secrets to making the best spam musubi:
1. Nail the ratio of spam & rice: These 2 components need the perfect balance, & we'll walk you through exactly what we do to create it.
2. Make an awesome spam musubi sauce: Mom’s is a simple teriyaki-style sauce made with a couple of pantry ingredients. When you pan-fry it with spam, it turns into a gloriously glossy & thick glaze.
While nothing beats a warm spam musubi on a beach in Hawaii, I think Mom’s spam musubi is the next best thing. I hope you love it as much as my family does! ♡

Yummy. 1/3 cup sugar. 3 tablespoons soy sauce. 2 tablespoon mirin. 1 tsp sesame oil. Thank you!!!!!!!❤

@tilepusher Год назад

I remember my dad made it slightly differently, by lightly toasting the nori on the oven burner(this was especially essential in Hawaii if the nori packing was already opened/used previously), then brushing one side of the toasted nori with a light coat of shoyu. Later with the influence of our Korean neighbors, he added a little sesame seed oil to the shoyu. Modern Hawaii, really is a mixing pot of so many different cuisines coming together.. So Ono!

@henrytenden Год назад

Im not sure about adding the shoyu ( soy sauce). The nori by itself is already salty, the furikake is also salty and don't tell me how much salt is on the spam.... And now you're gonna add shoyu on top of it?? Yikes!!

@tilepusher Год назад

@@henrytenden HA! Like anyone who eats Spam, worries about Salt! What I did post is: "brushing one side of the toasted nori with a light coat of shoyu." A brushed light coat of anything is minimal. If you prefer to cut down on Salt, skip most Hawaiian style foods & let people who like this kind of thing, enjoy it. You aren't sure about this, because you didn't grow up eating like this. I did. I am sure that I'm going to die, just not today. Please live a long happy life any way you choose!

@henrytenden Год назад

@@tilepusher Hey man if high blood pressure and heart diseases is your thing and that somehow makes you "Hawaiian", then by all means go for it...!! 🤣🤣🤣

@tilepusher Год назад

@@henrytenden HA! Thank you for your blessing. I am not made "Hawaiian" by what I eat, nor am I hiding behind claiming that I am Hawaiian. I go for everything, but thank you for advising me to live my life this way. I am not claiming to know you. It seems like you think you know me & are angry about it. I am so glad that you care enough about me, to give me free, unasked for advice. Chill man, it raises your blood pressure. There is no way that any food that has Spam in it is going to be healthy. The added Nitrites alone are insane. Yet, here we are, you trying to make a Spam Musubi, healthier? It's never going to be good for you. No one is ever going to save anyone's life by commenting on a snack/cooking video. To help you know more about me, so you can use that for your hate, I'm 97 years old, my heart & blood pressure is surprisingly great... so it's not my salt intake that is killing me... it's my smoking. I often think if adding MSG or Angel Dust would make my cigs taste better? I have so many things I need to quit to be healthier & eating unhealthy Spam Musubi's is so low on that list. You be you & I will wait for your hate. Peace Out.

@henrytenden Год назад

@@tilepusher You are really something else... When I said adding more sodium is not good for you, your reply is that you didn't ask for my advice, that I didn't know what I was talking about, that I shouldn't make a comment about it because that's how the Hawaiian eat their food and I didn't grow up eating like that. So I gave up and said do whatever you like then if that's your thing and now you said "I hate you" ...... So I guess, congratulations??? You've won no matter what.. 🤷🤷🤣

Grew up and spent most of my life on Oahu, now living in Nevada. I learned something new today; scrape the rice off the top and gently pack into the mold to keep the fluffiness. How could I NOT have known this all these years? Mahalos for the channel!!

I love the subtle but super useful tips your Mom has for cooking musubi. She is expert level!

@playswellwithbutter 3 месяца назад

Completely agree! 🥰

@rolandaustria7926 11 месяцев назад

Wife and I live in Japan, and sometimes we see this sold in convenience stores. We make our own version at home every Friday mornings, which we then eat at the nearby lake park for breakfast. Our version doesn't have sauce or furikake, but we use Kewpie mayo and tamago-yaki.

@taylormeyer671 29 дней назад

both of those variations of this snack sound delicious

@per-olamjomark7452 Год назад

I live in Scandinavia so Hawaiian food is not that prevalent in the local restaurant scene apart from poke bowls. Luckily, I stumbled upon a recipe for spam musubi a few years ago and loved it. It's easy to make and tasty at the same time. Thanks for an awesome video that made me yearn for this dish again. I guess the algorithms did their job right this time around. Mahalo!

@davidmcfarland2531 Год назад

I’ve been making spam musubi for over 30 years. It’s great to see new ways to make it. My mom, Japanese, would call the shiny side, the guest side.

@anewhair 9 месяцев назад

Seriously, the addition of sesame oil and mirin in the sauce is GENIUS! Thanks for the recipe. Delicious!

Oh, how I miss living in Hawaii!! Bringing back some good memories 🥰! Here on the mainland - no one really eats spam, lol. I didn't realize they have a mold; makes life easier. Thank you both for bringing a smile to my face and now will make for my son.

@@playswellwithbutter I can’t thank you and your mom enough. This will definitely be our go-to recipe and enjoyed many times. When I see how happy my family is when I make something for them that they love, I get excited to make it. This will be a regular plate at our house.

@tanyavaldez7706 7 месяцев назад

I still use this recipe every time I make musubi or a musubi bake. I’m making it as we speak and wanted to pop in and say hi. Everyone needs to try this recipe. I got musubi from a Poke place and it didn’t compare to this one. ❤❤❤

Thank you mama (and daughter!) for explaining that the fingertip rests on the SURFACE of the rice when adding the water. Others just appear to stick their finger into the rice but now I see that isn't what they are doing! This helps me bunches!!

I love that you guys give a lot of consideration to the SPAM to Rice ratio. I agree 6 or 8 slices matter. I usually do 8 but lower the rice quantity. Of course that makes a bit thinner Musubi but I find that okay.

@Seariders4eva Год назад

@TheDd223 11 месяцев назад

made this the other day for my family here in Texas. Lived in Las Vegas for 6 years and loved this treat. A friend who’s Samoan showed me this recipe with his family. did everything right and it tasted great but didn’t wrap the seaweed as tight as it should. The seaweed broke but on the third try it worked well. Thank you for showing and sharing your recipe.

@jiujitsuforall8627 Год назад

Hapa Power!!! My five kids and their spouses and ten grandkids (all hapas!!!) love Papa's famous Spam Musubis! It's always requested at all our Ohana gatherings! My family likes the spam in the middle, with a layer of rice on top and under the spam. Of course, "sprinkles" is mandatory. I make a dipping sauce with some Best Foods mayo, some of the teri sauce and some siracha-it's feaking ono!!!

Very great. My friend in elementary school had seaweed and rice in his lunch bag. His parents were in Korea as missionaries for the Unitarian church. And they brought this back to Maryland. I tried to trade Fritos for it. And craved it ever since. This Spam thing is right down my alley. Because of the seaweed. Very funny and good memories plus the bad. All mixed up) Yay...

Just discovered your channel, had no idea this would be Hawaiian traditional foods. So excited. Been missing my MIL cooking since moving from San Francisco. Every weekend the families would get together for heart warming feasts. I try my best to copy how she made, of course we never used recipes, I’ll never get it as good as her and our Hawaiian family, but tastes so good. I am looking for a homemade pastilles, like Mamas Pastilles in Honolulu, been 20 years, so far the few restaurants I’ve found do not come close to sitting in the kitchen or backyard with all the sisters, making hundreds for us all to take home. 😆 looking forward to checking out this channel. Brings back the memories of Hawaiian, Puerto Rican, Chinese flavor. Oka Noi
