Spam Sushi Maki Rolls Recipes

SPAM MUSUBI

Steps:

• Seasoning is furikake or li hing mui. I have a stick of umami at home that you grate over food. Don't know what's in it.
• Cut spam in 8-10 slices. Start frying.
• Mix equal amounts of soy sauce and sugar. Pour over Spam as it is frying to make extra crispy. Fry to desired crispness.
• Use a musubi mold to construct musubi or improvise.
• On sheet of Nori, layer one scoop of rice, sprinkle of seasoning, slice of Spam, sprinkle of seasoning, scoop of rice and pack tightly into a nice rectangle the size of the Spam. Wrap Nori around and seal with some rice.

HAWAIIAN SHOYU MUSUBI

Steps:

• Cut the Spam into 6 slices and pat the slices dry with paper towels. Wash and dry the Spam can, then line the inside with a sheet of plastic wrap.
• Whisk together the soy sauce and brown sugar in a small bowl.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Spam slices and cook, flipping once, until evenly brown and crispy, about 3 minutes per side. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the soy sauce mixture to the skillet, making sure to scrape in all of the sugar, and quickly flip the Spam slices to coat them. Turn off the heat, leaving the Spam in the skillet to continue absorbing the sauce as it cools.
• Add 3 tablespoons of rice to the Spam can, dipping the tablespoon measure in cold water as needed to prevent the rice from sticking. Use the back of the tablespoon to pack the rice into a level, compact layer. Top the rice with a generous pinch of furikake and a slice of Spam. Add 3 more tablespoons of rice and pack the rice into an even layer. Grasp the plastic wrap to lift the rice-Spam stack out of the can.
• Place a sheet of nori on a clean work surface rough-side up. Transfer the rice-Spam stack to the center of the nori--so its length is perpendicular to the length of the nori. Tightly fold one end of the nori up over the rice-Spam stack. Dab water across the second end of the nori, tightly fold it up over the first end and press to seal the seam. Flip the musubi over so the seam side faces down. Repeat with the remaining rice, furikake, Spam slices and nori, replacing the plastic wrap with a new sheet every time.
• Dampen a sharp knife with cold water and carefully slice each roll crosswise into 4 pieces.

SPAM ROLLS

Steps:

• Allow frozen rolls to thaw and rise according to directions.
• chop spam and onion finely( the smaller the better).
• salt and pepper to taste.
• when rolls have risen, make a hole in the center of the roll and put as much of the spam mixture as possible to be able to seal the dough around the spam rolls.
• put sealed part down on a greased pan and repeat on the remaining rolls.
• bake according to the rolls directions.
• remove when tops are golden and brush with butter.
• tip: the more you handle the dough, the tougher the roll will be.

SPAM MUSUBI

Steps:

• Soak uncooked rice for 4 hours; drain and rinse.
• In a saucepan bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in rice vinegar, and set aside to cool.
• In a separate bowl, stir together soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar until sugar is completely dissolved. Slice luncheon meat lengthwise into 10 slices, or to desired thickness, and marinate in sauce for 5 minutes.
• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Cook slices for 2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned. Cut nori sheets in half and lay on a flat work surface. Place a rice press in the center of the sheet, and press rice tightly inside. Top with a slice of luncheon meat, and remove press. Wrap nori around rice mold, sealing edges with a small amount of water. (Rice may also be formed by hand in the shape of the meat slices, 1 inch thick.) Musubi may be served warm or chilled.
