How To Make Spam Musubi

The first thing you will need are the appropriate supplies to make spam musubi.

A spam musubi press helps to press and form the rice.

A knife is needed to slice the spam, however a luncheon meat slicer is recommended for convenience and so the slices are uniform in size. Of course, you will need to do this on a cutting board.

The slices will need to be grilled on a skillet for a nice crunchy texture.

And, there you have it!

So, basically, all you need are: a skillet, spam musubi press, cutting board and knife.

When making spam musubi you will need:

- cooked sticky rice

- nori sheets

- spam

- teriyaki sauce (homemade teriyaki sauce has the best flavor).

Prepare the spam by slicing into 1/4" size slices and grilling on a skillet so that the texture is crunchy.

My favorite teriyaki sauce recipe is here: How To Make Teriyaki Sauce

When cooking, a good recipe is always important. When making spam musubi a good recipe is important too!

It isn't complicated, in fact it's very easy. There really isn't much to it.

- first, take one nori sheet and lay it on a clean cutting board

- center the spam musubi press on the nori sheet

- fill the spam musubi press with approximately 1 cup of cooked sticky rice

- press the rice firmly

- dip 2 pieces of the grilled spam into the homemade teriyaki sauce and place next to each other on the pressed rice

- again, fill the spam musubi press with approximately 1 cup of cooked sticky rice (on top of the spam)

- press the rice firmly

- now remove the spam musubi press by holding the 'presser' firmly and sliding the 'mold' up

- once the spam musubi press has been removed, wrap one side of the nori sheet around the rice

- now repeat by wrapping the other side of the nori sheet around as well

- you should now have a long spam musubi that can be cut in half

- Enjoy!
