How to Make Spam Musubi
I made Spam Musubi for my boyfriend this morning. I think he might love me more than he did before-- which is saying a lot! Thanks for the inspiration SE!

Breakfast burrito, gatorade, and plain old alka-seltzer. If I'm feeling particularly bad, then I opt for some hair of the dog: Cold beers or bloody marys.
We get a CSA basket, with a variety of fresh, local fruits and veggies that keep me inspired. I usually wait until after we get our basket, and then plan meals around the veggies we have on hand. I like to use the fresh stuff with legumes (lentils are my favorite thing lately,) risotto, grains, rices, and pastas. Add a fresh salad and usually lean pork, fish, or eggs and dinner is done. We also grow a ton of herbs in our garden for added flavor. We can adapt most meals for whatever we're craving; be it Asian, Mexican, Italian, etc.
Yum. I'm going to make this tonight.
I too love our Kyocera mandoline. I used it yesterday to make a Spanish Tortilla, and the potatoes came out perfectly.
My boyfriend and I use the mandoline quite a bit to slice beats up and put them on pizza with carrots, shallots, peanuts and finished with cilantro and pepper flakes. It's different, but delicious.
This crust looks fantastic! I've been baking a ton of bread lately, and have been meaning to make my own pizza dough. Last time I tried I used a Tyler Florence recipe that left much to be desired. I will definitely be making this soon.
Tacos from the Japanese lady who lived across the street from where I grew up. She used to fry them with chop sticks in an electric skillet in her garage.
I am so disgusted/intrigued at the same time. I love pickles, but the thought of frozen pickle juice makes me a little queasy.
The Fergus goes to Cosentino because he's Ruhlman's not-so-secret BFF, after Bourdain of course, and Symon. The Alton goes to Duff for having more personality than most on the FN, and, you know, not sucking at what he does, or Giada for being hot, and she can actually cook. The Mario should go to Mario, because Bourdain wishes the Batali family would adopt him, and this might buy their love. The Rocco should go to Tyler Florence. (Seriously? Applebee's?!? Gross.) The Cat Cora might have a surprise winner with the recent amendments made to Robert Irvine's CV, even though, really, what's the point of making up your own awards show in a drunken stupor, and then not giving yourself an award? It only seems right that Bourdain should award himself the Cat Cora.
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!
Karen,
How does that old saw go?
He who steals my face steals gold, but he who steals my account gets trash?
@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!
On the plus side, in the past few days I've been (to use the vernacular of my geographic region) blessed to have been be-friended by some very nice people in the SE group on Facebook.
On the minus side, I just got a notification from Facebook that I should change my password as they had discovered an attempt to steal my account.
WTF?
I'm on there and so is my blog. I'm also part of the Serious Eats group!

Chew on That
I'm there (here?) and just joined SE's facebook group as well. Pteety much the only time I remember to go to Facebook is when I've got a Scrabulous game going, though ;)
