This week, it's all about spam. I learned that spam is WAY more than just meat in a can. There is a really interesting history behind the meat and how it's been reimagined from a wartime commissary food to something much more interesting today.

Beryl!!! The “sandwich de mezcla” is usually made with cheese wiz which is a bit milder and way more pimento and spam , the cheese can easily overpower the other ingridients, you can also add a splash of milk to make it silkier, and it can be sooo addictive, if you try it this way let me know if its better😘

Never been one to say spam is horrible. Unless you've turned it into a charcoal bricket. I can eat it plain if I fry it.

Or I could dice and peel a potato scramble 3 eggs mince some garlic dice more spam fry it all in a pan until it has browned then add the egg finish it up and eat it. Benefit of being alone i just eat it right out the pan.

@rocionieves4336 2 года назад

It was so nice to see you use a sandwich de mezcla recipe! A little tip for the next time you wanna make them though: use Velveeta cheese instead of Tostito's Queso and pulse it for a little longer in the food processor. The Velveeta cheese and the further processing gives it a smoother and creamier taste and texture (you can also add a bit of the roasted pepper brine to smooth out the texture more). Its a really common snack at parties here in Puerto Rico. A party ain't a party without them. And since the spread keeps for a while it's great for picnics or a quick breakfast sandwich as well. I'm honestly glad to see it included in the video so thank you. I love watching your videos and I learn so much from them too!

Thank you for citing Barbara Funamura as the inventor of the spam musubi. She was a friend and client, as well as the neighbor at the shopping center where we had different businesses. She was a former home economics teacher open a small restaurant, and became very successful at it. Spam musubi recipes pop up all over the world. I even saw one from England in a computer magazine! Next time you come to Hawaii, her little shop is still open in the same Kukui Grove Center, on the island of Kauai. It is now called Sone’s. You can find spam musubi at 7-Eleven stores throughout our state, as well as businesses on most beachfronts. All right Donald’s restaurants here serve a hot plate of rice, scrambled egg, and macaroni salad spam for breakfast. The same McDonald’s serve saimin noodles in broth with chopped green onion and spam for lunch and dinner.

When stationed in Hawaii in 1960's I use to eat at the little Mom &Pop restaurants out in the neighborhoods. Loved the foods. I hear that most of these places are now gone. So sad.

@redrust3 2 года назад

@@webbtrekker534 hope you make it back here someday! For the most part, those little restaurants were intended to support families, whose children later grew up went to college, and then on to successful professional careers. Sadly, their interests rarely extend it to either continuing the family business or restaurants of their own. You can find food trucks at smaller beach parks doing the same thing. Some of them are awesome!

This my first time watching one of your videos and I have to say I really enjoyed it. What made me curious to watch it was the word "SPAM". When I was a kid (back in the '60s) my Mom use to occasionally use SPAM to make a quick easy meal, but I haven't had it much as an adult (maybe ate some in my early twenties when I was first out on my own and the occasional Spam Musubi). Watching your video has made me want to try having some SPAM again. I especially liked that you didn't just have one recipe, but several. I want to try them all. This was definitely a fun watch. I have subscribed to your channel and I look forward to watching more of your videos.

As someone from Guam, I'm so happy you shared a short part of history about how spam was introduced!

@sydneyblas4001 3 года назад

@@kary47619 Hi! Yes! It's kelaguen! The pronounciation in the video is pretty spot on for the dish itself! The word for Tatiyas is pronounced wrong though haha! We pronounce "y" as more of a dz- sound, so it should so more like "tah-ti-dzas" rather than "ti-ti-yahs"!

@sydneyblas4001 3 года назад

@Justin Gentapanan I definitely agree with you on all points listed! As someone who lives in the states making traditional food can be a bit hard depending on where you stay here so I'm giving the benefit of the doubt but I definitely think even more research could have been done on the food and culture! Definitely the pronunciation of Tatiyas threw me off haha! As well as the comment of tatiyas being just a "chamorro-ized" version of tortillas! I don't associate them together at all and I feel like it washes over the culture behind chamorro food. It's nice to see Guam get included but it's definitely even more difficult to find videos that are well representative of our culture and island! I wish people would do more research on pronunciation specifically! I can't tell you how many times I've cringed hearing a chamorro word mis-pronounced on videos that incorporate Guam!
