I make these for breakfast with egg in between the spam and rice. If you can find the half-height spam cans they make perfect single serve molds and are easy to press. Turn a ketchup bottle with a twist lid upside down and it's even better for pressing. I just use pre-made teriyaki sauce, what's nice is all the ingredients can be found in most any supermarket with any semblance of an Asian food aisle.
I’m so impressed with how well Hiroyuki English has gotten I actually enjoy the video more when he’s talking and explaining every step, keep up the Amazing work Master Chef 🙌🏼
Aloha from Florida! Many happy memories of my brief stay in Honolulu. There I had a tuna steak breakfast at 2am. I sampled a Spam and eggs another time. A solid dish.:)
That looks really good. I particularly think the Spam Katsu is amazing. I hope you and your cameraman Charles have a good afternoon and a great week. Cheers, Chef Hiro!
Great variants of spam musubi! I’m going for it later. Btw, a suggestion. If you use the lid from the Spam can, it’s easier to push down on the rice and get an even layer.
@Craig N Another tip is to remove the bottom of the SPAM can, and that way you just set the whole thing over the seaweed and you don't have to get it out of the mold - so no plastic wrap waste! Just use the can just like he used the mold - so easy. (I love your tip to use the lid, by the way.)
@@lisahinton9682 you are definitely more thoughtful that me. :D Since my comment, my cousin gave me one of those acrylic spam musubi molds so my plastic waste days are in the past.
I was in Oahu for just short of three weeks from late December until first week of January, and didn’t realise how good spam could taste until I had musubi. I was eating them regularly since you can find them in any store. Regarding your kanji subtitled new channel, congratulations! However, analytics-wise if you’re interested in keeping views on the English channel, the Japanese-subtitled channel could theoretically be cannibalizing views from the English one, which will obviously throw off anything related to analytics. I will subscribe to it anyway, as I have been watching Best Motoring’s TH-cam channel and only understand a fraction of what they are talking about since there is almost zero English- may as well immerse myself in as much Japanese as possible.
Spam is great as long as it gets caramelized , I have made Spam fried rice and it is really good..my friends couldn't believe it when I told them it was Spam
I recommend people try adding kimchee, tsukemono, or a scrambled egg to the OG spam musubi...its so versatile. Try different flavor combos...you'll love it.
This is the first Hero vlog I’ve watched where the most used word you two use is hmm. So many times! Now I definitely have to make this sushi! Cheers from Canader eh!
I tried the one with sauce I added on my plate pickled ginger and wasabi(well what passes for wasabi here in the states. I found out I can use my steamer pan to steam rice in a heat proof bowl. I love it I don't have to buy a rice cooker now.
YES, & their Teriyaki Chicken Musabi! & if you get that at the local Hawaiian 7-11 Stores (only place to get them there), get the steamed Maunapua as well (aka sweat steamed super soft bread stuffed Pork Buns in red coloring!). Wish they sold both of them inside the U.S.!
@@keikialanifrazee8892 Im about to move to Hawaii in a couple months. Since everything is imported there, I know everything is more expensive (I assume). I'm worried even something like spam or Musubi is gonna be way too expensive. Fill me in on what food costs are like plz 😅
@@keikialanifrazee8892 I'm half Korean so I cook lots of Korean, Japanese, Asian in general/fusion foods. I enjoy making & eating Musubi. I heard a lot of the people are like myself, mixed asian. So I'm hoping there will be a Korean market or enough Korean type groceries for me to buy that won't kill my bank account.
The musubi I had in Oahu had a beaten egg. I cooked my spam with the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey and sesame oil. I cooked in low heat so it would have that crispy. I use the 2nd method with can.
OMG!!!!! My mouth was watering during the whole video. I love the idea of feed fried spam with avocado. My mind was blown. I will definitely try to make the deep fried musubi roll.
I have started making my own teriyaki sauce with equal quantity of soy sauce, mirin, sake, orange marmalade and some ginger grated in, cook it down a bit and add some corn starch to thicken it. I love spam musubi this way. I'm going to try the katsu and tempura, that looks delicious.
As a Hong Konger, we are not stranger with luncheon meat or SPAM as in US. We love have them on daily basis, not only it is cheap but so tasty that can't simply ignore. That being said, I have yet tried a Katsu SPAM, will give it a try whenever I have a chance. :D
Hello Hiro ♥️ I had to watch this because I have tried my best to like SPAM but I think my chilhood messed that up 🤢. I’m ready to watch how to make it good.
*Love* how much Sushi Chef extraordinaire Hiro enjoys eating the foodstuff He prepares. As well He should! I would very enjoy eating the Hiro made-meals too! Also, get a smile/kick from how much Hiro & ‘bestie’ Cameraman, who shall remain nameless, enjoy their avocados. I enjoy eating avocado very much also ie grew up in SW Texas (btw, have *never* voted Republican/GQP :-) Ha! Looking fwd to when Hiro perhaps combines avocado, fresh-fried bacon, choice of fish, whether sliced raw or cooked, plus rice & makes either a sushi ‘roll’ or an ‘Onigiri’ or maybe both in upcoming single episode. Okay, that’s all. Thx. Over/Out.
🌴🌺 Looks amazing. I’ll have to try the variations. I usually make the traditional spam musabi and it’s always better the next day. Thank you very much!! 🙏❤️
Master Chef Hiroyuki, where can we buy the Spam cutter & plastic mold for the masubi ? Thank you so much! My Mom was from Nagasaki. I was born here. Thank you for the recipe! I learned about Spam when my mom & I moved back to Hawaii after highschool graduation in 1979. We were stationed there in 1967-1969 when my American Father was Viet Nam War. I miss Hawaii & Japan when we lived there on Base. ❤🎉👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👵🏼💕
I have the Special Cutter and Musubi Press. Can't wait to see your video. Yes, I am not Japanese. I'm from Southern Illinois. My husband is Sansei. We live in Chicago. I call my fingers Southern Illinois Chopsticks. Trued to convince my husband that he is not eating Maki Sushi correctly and he is offending the Sushi Chef.
I watched this over and over and never saw you use the sesame oil. Was it suppose to go in the sauce or was it something you just don't use but people can?
I'm from Hawaii and I'm watching this. I prefer the plain way SPAM (no need teriyaki, tempura, and so on) extra crispy musubi. Add egg to it too. Than wrap it with nori. Learned something new; use the can as a mold. Avocado in SPAM musubi; I'll try it but that just makes me want to eat California roll instead. By the way, we need a Family Mart like the one they went to. If you're on Oahu; go to Leeward Drive Inn and try their Spam Musubi with egg. 7-11 is good too.
If u are from NY NJ or PA they have a product called pork roll. It is similar to spam but a lot LESS salty and more Smokey and expensive I love it but it seems to be an east cost thing. I think the older snowbirds that went to Fl had their cosco and BJs start ordering it
I’d like to try the katsu one, I wonder if pan frying the spam before hand (letting it cool before coating it of course) would increase the flavour more.
the trick for regular spam musubi at least to me is to slice it thin and pan fry til crispy, and mix some furikake seasoning into the rice. Also, you can try to marinade the spam in a bit of teriyaki sauce. Gives it the sweet/salty hawaiian bbq flavor and the rice soaks the teri sauce nicely. I am born and raised in hawaii, and thats how i prefer it anyhow.
I’ve seen videos of people going to family mart and the food looks fantastic 😍 I really want to go to japan one day. I’ve never tried spam musubi before, those look so delicious
Is that standard mayo and Ichimi they're dipping the musubi in or is it some sort of wasabi aioli? I also love the technique for using the actual can to form the musubi :) I never grew up with Spam, but after living a year on Maui got a hankering for it, so have to pick it up when I see it in the store!
I would recommend Danish ham over spam for some things similar to this. It's got a really really similar flavour but a bit more meaty texture and bite. It's texture is kinda like chicken
I make these for breakfast with egg in between the spam and rice. If you can find the half-height spam cans they make perfect single serve molds and are easy to press. Turn a ketchup bottle with a twist lid upside down and it's even better for pressing. I just use pre-made teriyaki sauce, what's nice is all the ingredients can be found in most any supermarket with any semblance of an Asian food aisle.
And you can make it for a spam misubi bowl.
Simply ingenious. Watching you elevate Musubi this way was very inspiring.
I'm glad to see you guys use spam in a lot of sushi its not something you always see people eat because my grandfather and I love it
I’m so impressed with how well Hiroyuki English has gotten I actually enjoy the video more when he’s talking and explaining every step, keep up the Amazing work Master Chef 🙌🏼
Checked the ingredients at Amazon and I will make some tomorrow. Thanks for sharing.
The Katsu one looks super good!! I usually just make a basic teriyaki one but I might have to try the crunchy one 😋☺️
Aloha from Florida! Many happy memories of my brief stay in Honolulu. There I had a tuna steak breakfast at 2am. I sampled a Spam and eggs another time. A solid dish.:)
Super, master Japanese Chef. Great in variety dishes. Presentation even great!
Love the Hiro twist on Spam Musubi. Keep up the good work and the short snippets on the travels.
I love spam... I buy it by the case, and always have at least 2 cases on hand. I just made musubi last week. Love the video. Keep them coming.
I binge watch these. I really love watching this channel
I’m gonna make some, this week. I’ve been craving me some!
That looks really good. I particularly think the Spam Katsu is amazing. I hope you and your cameraman Charles have a good afternoon and a great week. Cheers, Chef Hiro!
Thank you for sharing these amazing recipes.
I’m watching because I enjoy watching you cut.
I'm so happy to see someone else that wraps the whole musubi with seaweed, rather than just a quarter of it.
as a Japanese Hawaiian I approve of this video
Thank you for introducing new ways of making spam musubi. Looking forward to making these varieties for the kiddos.
I love musubi, thanks por the new recipes! 😋
You are such an amazing chef… my hero!!

Just had the Spam Katsu Musubi. It taste amazing and is so crunchy even after it get cold.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge & technique .
👍👍👍👍
Here in Hawaii locals just love spam musubi especially the teriyaki one.

The simplest way to make SpamMusubi.
Arigatou gozaimasu Chef Hiroyuki.
Another great creation chef! 🙏
Spam is a quick and easy meal. Try making a spam burger or sliced thin then fried crispy like bacon, only tastes better.
Thanks for sharing!😊
Support chef 👩🍳
Hello Hiro.....that looks so delicious and somthing I can do myself at home,it would be great to see more easy to do recipes in the future!!!😄😄💝
damn it! Now I want some spam Musubi. Time to take a trip to the store.
I was gonna say that's not enough sugar but then you added the honey. Pleasant surprise! I will have to try that sometime ^.^
The musubi I had in Oahu had a beaten egg. I cooked my spam with the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey and sesame oil. I cooked in low heat so it would have that crispy. I use the 2nd method with can.
You don't need the film, just take a can opener to the other side, and you have a perfect SPAM shaped oshizushi mold - pack it in and lift up.
OMG!!!!! My mouth was watering during the whole video. I love the idea of feed fried spam with avocado. My mind was blown. I will definitely try to make the deep fried musubi roll.
Having lived in japan, i can 1000% vouch that for family mart and lawsons
500 yen and that’s a good dinner at lawsons
I have started making my own teriyaki sauce with equal quantity of soy sauce, mirin, sake, orange marmalade and some ginger grated in, cook it down a bit and add some corn starch to thicken it. I love spam musubi this way. I'm going to try the katsu and tempura, that looks delicious.
That double panko coating looks amazing!

I love to refrigerate my Spam Musubi for a couple of hours very nice chilled to take on a picnic or a day on the beach
Nice store Its so clean and there is no junkies outside like in america
I like your style on how to prepare and cook spam musubi.

Hoooo about time cuz!!

I make this as a snack all the time,
I love how simple and easy it is I also sometimes make basic hand rolls when I make this treats
I love family mart!! Best rice balls in a convenient store!! P.S. Lawson pretty good too!
Ono! Mahalo for sharing, Brother Hiro!
If u are from NY NJ or PA they have a product called pork roll. It is similar to spam but a lot LESS salty and more Smokey and expensive I love it but it seems to be an east cost thing. I think the older snowbirds that went to Fl had their cosco and BJs start ordering it
Spam Musubi!! My favorite to pack on a road trip or on long plane flights. Stuff is 'ono!

I love turkey spam. I'm going to try this out. Especially the spam+avocado combo with the glazing is a great idea.
Please come to Honolulu Hawaii I love your videos and I would love to meet you one day
Thanks so much for sharing interesting spam musubi.
I’ve seen videos of people going to family mart and the food looks fantastic 😍 I really want to go to japan one day. I’ve never tried spam musubi before, those look so delicious
This chef is great l!
Kewpie Mayo, shichimi and some black sesame seeds for dip...perfect!
I particularly never cared for spam but nice job with the presentations
Reminds me of an ABC store. Portuguese sausage with egg musubi ftw.
I like to add a little bit of shredded cabbage between the spam and rice in the masubi, that has had a bit of vinegar added to it.
Thank you for the video!!
Is that standard mayo and Ichimi they're dipping the musubi in or is it some sort of wasabi aioli? I also love the technique for using the actual can to form the musubi :)
I never grew up with Spam, but after living a year on Maui got a hankering for it, so have to pick it up when I see it in the store!
I think it was Kewpie mayo mixed with Japanese seven spice
Man I miss Okinawa. SPAM沖縄そばはどうですか？それともゴヤチャンプルー？
I want to try the avocado Katsu version! I had teriyaki Spam musubi with macaroni salad for lunch, so good.
I read "Spam Wasabi" and revolted at those what I thought were thick green slabs of wasabi for a moment
Pretty amazing how many healthy options there are in the Japanese 7-11 stores.😁
From Indonesia i love Japanese food ❤️
I want to try the katsu with some katsu sauce. Thanks for the idea!
Hello, what oil do you use to fry the spam? 🤣🙏🙏
Thank you
I would recommend Danish ham over spam for some things similar to this. It's got a really really similar flavour but a bit more meaty texture and bite. It's texture is kinda like chicken
This video takes me back to when I used to live on Oahu...😊 Thanks, guys. BTW, how's about a video on malasadas? Can't leave out Hawaiian dessert🤙
Those creampuffs are indeed the best!!
would be nice if you do the one with the egg and spam :)
🌴🌺 What is the Mayo dipping sauce????
I don’t have vinegar sadly, I do have sweet soy sauce though, or can anyone recommend a good replacement from vinegar for teriyaki sauce?
I love all three!
Looks good 😋
Spam and rice go so well together.
Hiro takes the biggest bites when he eats, love it!
Probably forced out of Japan for knowing how to eat.
Watching this gives me a new appreciation for spam.
