I have been working with Hormel Foods for a number of months now trying out some of their food products, and creating recipes based on certain items they send me. It is no secret that I love their Cure 81 Ham, Mary Kitchen hash (probably my favorite of everything they make), and the Natural Choice meats — in addition to some of their other products including the Natural Skippy peanut butters and Chi-Chi’s salsa products.

This month when they sent me some of their SPAM in the Teriyaki flavor I will admit I left it sit on the counter for quite some time before deciding what to do with it. Although I do like Spam (I find it a tad salty but otherwise good), I really wasn’t sure about the Teriyaki flavor. After finally getting up the nerve (and the time) to try something new, I discovered that I actually really like it, probably more-so than the original flavor! See kids– it is good to try new things. 🙂

What I ended up making was a variation of the Breakfast Musubi recipe they have featured on their site. I truly is a simple recipe, and in fact so simple you can make quite a few meals out of one can of SPAM. I think if you are looking for something that is really quick, easy, and a great way to use up some left-over rice, this will be a great recipe for you to try!

The only thing that I didn’t have on hand that would truly make this a Musubi recipe was the Nori (seaweed). I would have used it had I had any on hand, but I didn’t feel it necessary to run to the store just for that one item. Feel free to use it if you have it!

Ingredients

  • 1 12-ounce can SPAM® Classic, cut lengthwise into 10 slices
  • 4.5 oz White steamed rice, cooked ahead of time
  • 4 sheets Japanese Nori, cut in half (optional)
  • 2 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 each Egg, cooked flat or scrambled
  • Soy sauce for drizzling (optional).

Instructions

  1. Heat sauté pan with 1 Tbsp oil and sear SPAM® Teriyaki on both sides for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Remove from pan and add rest of oil, then cook egg - scrambling or flat (omelet style).
  3. Using a sushi press create your rice shape, then layer the SPAM and egg on top. Wrap with Nori if desired and drizzle with soy sauce.
  4. Serve warm.

Notes

If you have a sushi press it makes this recipe really easy. Simply add your rice to the container and press. One suggestion I would make is to use a little less rice than what the directions state. I felt this dish was overwhelmingly rice flavored and not enough egg and SPAM. If you don't have a sushi press, just place all your ingredients in your Nori and wrap.
