Photo of the Day: Shave Ice at Ward Farmers' Market
I feel like driving there and picking one up. It's so hot today.

I'm going to walk down to my 7-Eleven right now and buy a SPAM musubi in honor of this post.

Mmm...Spam.
Despite our love of Spam Musubi and Spam, Hawaii does not have the title of highest consumption of Spam in the world per capita?
Apparently Guam has it.
Does McDonald's count as crap?
Also, did you do the crap drawing, Robyn? If so, crap has never looked so cute.
I'm Kevin's hero? Sweet! If only I had a cape, I'd be a superhero.
Whaaaa? I've never had it with furikake added, seems unnecessary?Soy Sauce and Sugar.. is a kind of teriyaki sauce... hey have you tried making teriyaki with brown sugar instead of white?? I LOVE IT. But hey, Using a press is soooooo cheating. Come on kids, do it by hand like the pros. (could you imagine a sushi chef trying to show off using a press??)
Bigany... you're gonna die earlier than most just from stressing out about what you eat. You don't eat Spam Musubi everyday, you just eat it once in a while. Haven't you ever heard the 80/20 rule? eat healthy stuff 80% of the time, you can at 20% CRAP and still be as healthy. You'll be much happier too!!
Can you really re-crispify nori in a pan???
Funny... i totally made Spam Musubi Fried Rice by accident! I wanted to see if anyone else has done that
We were in Hawaii in 2000, and made it our mission to find the best shave ice. We found it in Kauai, a place with 100+ flavors. I miss Hawaii!
Made it tonight! It was delicious, I made them with Kewpie and it was great! I did the rice layer, than did kewpie and than a layer of furikake. The Kewpie made it less salty.. especially if you just use regular ol' Spam!
@Bigany - I take it you've not tried a Spam musubi done the right way in the right setting; coming right out of the ocean, after being out for serveral hours swimming/snorkeling/surfing, and reaching for a Spam musubi. It's a quick, simple snack that's not messy and can be carried around/left anywhere. The only rubbish is the tiny scrunched up plastic wrap. No plates or utensils. =)
oh man, how did i miss this post earlier? i tried the spam musubi from a 7-11 once and it hit the spot. awesome post kathy!
Oahu - now that milk's out of the way, get to work on your beer.
Soy milk is tasty, but it's not the same as MOO JUICE!
Forget using that plastic mold - just use the spam can! Press the rice into the bottom of the can with a spoon or fingers (watch out for the sharp edges), then smack the can (opening side down) into your chopping board. Voila! Perfectly shaped rice for your musubi!
(I make this all the time - I've never had the balls to actually bring to work to eat though. Spam is still my shameful secret.)
@BaHa: Your best bet is to get it online. No Japanese supermarkets in NYC had it at least. :\
I am definitely making this soon! Can I get a musubi mold at a Japanese supermarket?
