Scorching Spam Brûlée Musubi Recipe!

Just SPAMMING your feed! 💥

Let’s make some spam Musubi! But not just any, we’re gonna slightly level it up by making it a BRÛLÉE SPAM MUSUBI!

If you don’t know spam musubi is a snack that is basically a slice of grilled spam sandwich between two slabs of rice and wrapped with nori.

I never had these growing up. Matter fact I didn’t have it until I moved to the West Coast as an adult. I think it’s because there’s not a lot of Japanese or Hawaiian culture in the Midwest. But this is definitely a treat for those who have not tried.

I’ve made spam this musubi before on the blog but I wanted to try something new. I want to Shootz, a Hawaiian restaurant and was inspired by their brûlée Musubi! So I wanted to recreate it at home.

The Japanese Mayo was a game changer and of course the blow torch too! But fear not, if you don’t have one, you can put it in the airfryer or oven and broil it for a few mins!

As always the recipe is below:
