Aloha To You - How to make the famous Spam Musubi.

[@Tropical241]

I made this recipe many times and it is the best! The best part about it and what separates it from other recipes is that he ladles the sauce into the pan and the heat of the pan caramelizes the sauce and helps it soak into the spam balancing the saltiness. Most other recipes online do it where you just briefly soak before cooking and it's not as good. This is amazing!!

[@livingwaterjapan]

Thank you so much! So happy you enjoyed it

[@alohatoyou2783]

Thanks for all your views, we hope you've enjoyed your musubi! ALOHA

Just tried it :) amazing thanks for sharing your amazing recipe

@@nikkibyrd4806 thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it :)

[@Thephilosophia]

Just came to say aloha. I used your recipe and made Musubi today. It was the first time in 15 years I’ve had it, and I honestly almost cried. I miss Hawaii. This reminds me of my family, my Hawaiian roots and the small time I actually got to spend living on Kauai with extended family. (Hawaiian grandmother raised her kids and then our parents- us … on the mainland). Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. Much aloha to you. ❤

[@livingwaterjapan]

Thank you so much for taking time to share heartfelt message. Much aloha to you and your family as well.

I grew up in Hawaii and now live in Massachusetts I've been craving Spam Musubi for so long. Thanks for this.

[@zz7733]

xXsilentscreamingXx Aw man, I grew up in MA and couldn’t wait to get out! The winter is insane and it’s dark out by 4:30 PM. Best of luck dude!!

[@seven6pro]

7 yrs and still my favorite musubi recipe.

[@shanekonno2094]

@seven6pro thank you so much for your kindness about our video, so glad you like the recipe. We wish you all the very best. Aloha

[@seven6pro]

@@shanekonno2094 You’re welcome.

[@HrafnNordhri]

@@shanekonno2094 The main thing you didn't mention is the use of short grain rice.. or "sushi" rice without the seasoning. I make these often, and your video was great. Straight to the point and obviously a lot of fun.

[@rabidwargamer68]

I remember the old cans of Spam that you opened with a key. You wound it around the outside edge of the top of the can!

[@gossamerwings3632]

rabidwargamer68...yeah that's right & that key used to get snarled up sometimes, too. I hope this pulloff tab works better for me. I'm going to make musubi once I get the furikake, I was just at the Japanese foodstore yesterday before I saw this video, now I have to go back.

[@gunnyoneshot69]

As much as I hate to admit it; I can relate to that. That goes back a looong time!!

[@moonbladem]

I remember when phones had rotating wheels... took forever to dial a number LOL! And cassette tapes... yep I remember recording songs off the radio that way! :D I also remember writing letters, and having pen pals. Sigh... those were the days!

[@1kinut800]

The thing with those old cans, and I wish they hadn't change them, is that if you used a can opener to remove the bottom "lid" you could use the can as the nigiri mold.

[@oldercloudify]

I didn't know what these were called, so I asked a group of guys from Hawaii, who train at the same BJJ academy as I do. I called it a "spam wedge", and the guys fell over laughing. I have been corrected, and the term "spam wedge" lives on in infamy.

[@alohatoyou2783]

+Matthew Bottiglieri Hey Matthew, Spam Wedge...Thats a good one, never heard that one before. I've been learning BJJ for almost a year now and enjoying every minute of it. Right on!! Hope you enjoyed the video.

I saw spam musubi at a Hawaiian restaurant here in town. It was pretty spendy so I decided to try making it myself. Got nori at the store, a musubi mold and a you tube video how to. I've been making it ever since! I never thought of using furitake, I'm going to from now on. I put the Spam slice in the mold first, then the rice and press. The fold the nori with the seem underneath. Gotta get some furitake......

Hi the brand is "Aloha Shoyu"

Eh brah, can get Spam all over the World, including Mainland. What you can’t get outside Hawaii, is Aloha shoyu. We use Kikoman. Mahalo.

[@anthonyoh4304]

Thank you for sharing, God bless.

[@angelayang7753]

Spam Mitsubishi on the island always tasted so yummy, but the other recipes online almost never add teriyaki sauce, chili oil or that much sugar, so this one really came out so yummy. You rarely find savory musubi on the mainland lol. Thank you for the video even 7 years later, hahah. 🤙🏼✨

[@livingwaterjapan]

Thank you so much. We are so happy it turned out yummy for you. Aloha

[@lesliealexander8565]

Nice video. I think I am going to try this for 8/08 National Spam Musubi Day!!! Oh, and no need send Spam to the mainland...hahaha. That's were it originally came from. SPAM is a canned lunch meat product that first hit shelves in 1937. It was created in Austin, Minnesota by the manufacturers Hormel Foods. Toward the end of the Great Depression, SPAM helped fill a huge need for inexpensive meat products. And its popularity only grew. How was Spam introduced to Hawaii? The true root of the island's love for SPAM® products goes back to World War II, when the luncheon meat was served to GIs. By the end of the war, SPAM® products were adopted into local culture, with Fried SPAM® Classic and rice becoming a popular meal.

I ordered aloha teriyaki and the shoyu. Is the teriyaki kind of the same how you mix with sugar or should I just use your recipe to make the sauce/marinade

[@livingwaterjapan]

It may be very similar to it. I can’t say for sure as I’ve never tried it. However, you can’t go wrong if you follow the recipe and how its cooked in the sauce. Thank you so much for watching our video. Hope you love it. Take care and God Bless

What is the stuff you sprinkled on the rice?

[@whitesonar]

So you wrap the Nori around the rice and spam right out of the package? Or do you have to moisten it.

[@alohatoyou2783]

Aloha Jaylina, I like to use the Nori right out of the package without moistening. It has a nice crisp to it. Enjoy and thanks for watching!

[@pjirapoomdech]

Aloha Ellie, we love Spam Musubi. You mentioned in your video that you could ship Spam in case we can't find it in our local store. We are in Thailand and we don't have it in any store, so I wonder if you could arrange to ship Spam and the Furikake in your video to Thailand? Thank you :)

Excellent! BTW is this with regular rice or sushi rice? Thanks for making this video .. Aloha

[@alohatoyou2783]

Thanks for watching. I believe in this video we used sushi rice. Aloha

[@chilibonze]

Question....do some people make this with sushi rice? Meaning the rice that has rice vinegar, sugar and salt? Thank you. I know there is no correct way, but Im wondering what is the most popular way?

[@shanekonno2094]

Hello :) thanks for watching. Although it is possible to do that way, most in Hawaii do not use vinegar. The furikake seasoning had some sugar/salt. Most popular is the way shown in the video. Thank you again and hope you can enjoy making one soon :)

Mahalos brah, this is perfect!! Now I gotta order some Spam from Amazon lol One question: do you use sushi rice or regular rice? I've heard it both ways, I also heard you're supposed to mix the rice with Rice wine vinegar and all that. Hoo it was easier to just buy it from 7-11. Shakas \m/

[@jeannieflores786]

Do u just cook white rice? Do u add anything to it?

[@alohatoyou2783]

Hello, thanks for watching. We use just plain white rice, nothing added. Except at the very end once you make the musubi, the juices from the teriyaki sauce goes very well drizzled on.

[@MonitoSmith]

The world loves you, Hiroyuki Terada Jr.....................♥

[@nadideleon]

Did you use just a regular rice? Thank you! I hope I can make one. Musubi here is very expensive. 🙄

[@alohatoyou2783]

Yes, I used a basic Japanese brand/style rice. Here in Hawaii, we make our rice a little sticky, it's not dry where it may fall apart. I hope this will help you to make a great musubi. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you for watching our videos.

[@ZPD-doo-DAH]

Mr & Mrs P: In Hawaii, we like love our rice, soft, fluffy and slightly sticky. Plate lunches, spam musubis, and bentos use the Medium grain (Japanese) rice, and not the long grain rice found in Chinese restaurants, which isn't as soft and doesn't stick together the way that the Japanese rice does--it's more crumbly. I wouldn't even attempt to use the instant (Uncle Ben's) rice, because that wouldn't have the right texture. :^p Use nori (seaweed) sheets that are dark, thin, crispy and has a sheen. The cheaper sheets (dull color and soft to the touch) can be rubbery, tough-to-bite into. You get what you pay for. So opt for the better quality nori.

[@sugetoosty1685]

can you just use terriyaki sauce?

[@txgirla]

Is the recipe written down anywhere? Which Aloha Shoyu product did you use?...the soy sauce, teriaki, ??What brand furikake did you use?

[@alohatoyou2783]

Thanks for watching. We used the regular Aloha Shoyu. The brand of Furikaki was "Nishima", "Aji Nori Furikaki".

[@jasonkonno3243]
