Spam General

[Swenson !EMdDFo4Yio No.5723063]

Hey /ck/, i don't normally come here. I'm usually on /tg/, but i just wanted to bring this here.

I

fucking

love

spam

And I'm not a native Hawaiian or anything like that. Anyway, lets have a Spam general thread. I'm always looking for new and fun ways to prepare and eat it.

I like to just fry a few slices and put it in a bun with cheese mustard and ketchup. I also like to prepare some rice, fry up a few slices, add some soy sauce when frying, and eat it over rice with chopsticks.

How do you guys like to eat it?

[Anonymous No.5723068]

I like to slice it super thin, cut each slice into bite-size chunks and broil them until they're crunchy. Spam chips!

>>5723063
Grilled or fried is the only way.

[Swenson !EMdDFo4Yio No.5723086]

>>5723079

Yesterday I was visiting a chef at our local college and I was lucky enough to hang around for most of the class. At one point the chef hands me an old photo album and leaves me be while he teaches the class about risotto. The pictures are from a polaroid camera and its hard to make out the fine details. He comes back later and I ask him what this one picture is-it looks like it's spam. Holy shit.... I thought he was gonna have an aneurysm. He yelled "SPAM?!?!?!" LOUD enough that I'm sure the entire campus heard him. Then he tells me it was salmon and I apologize.

I thought I was gonna die. Never again will I mention spam in front of a culinary professional.

What the hell happened?

OP, are you Hawaiian?
Hawaiians LOVE Spam.

There's old footage from WW2 of Hawaiian guards bare chested bearing swords guarding a cave FULL of Spam cans on palettes. Enough to feed the whole island for a month.

It's just too damned popular.

Good thing you can still get the off brand stuff for $1.25 -$1.50 a tin.

[Anonymous No.5723588]

I've never tried Spam before, I imagine it's like a tin of room temperature hotdog meat.
Doesn't really sound the appealing.

It's all about spam fried rice.

Thinly sliced grilled spam inside a grilled cheese sandwich is a winner too.

it tasted good

[Anonymous No.5723655]

>1/2 can spam
>1 can of diced potatoes
>fry in butter
>lots of paprika
>salt and pepper to taste

Everyone in my house makes this for breakfast occasionally but we all cook it a little differently

[Anonymous No.5723662]

>>5723655
Absolutely delicious with onions and scrambled eggs.

You should have seen the chicken stock he made.
He didn't even roast the chicken or veg in the oven before he put it in the pot.

>>5723644
I doubt it.

>bite size chunks

I usually just cut them thin and fry them like bacon, then follow up with my eggs and what not.

[Anonymous No.5723764]

>>5723751

Actually, now that I think about it the bite size chunks would go good in an omelet.

muh nigga. I like to wrap up mine in a tortilla when I have it like that.

[Anonymous No.5723786]

>canned potatoes

Aside from that these make for some great breakfast burritos.

[Anonymous No.5723810]

Put thin slices in ramen broth. Easy way to add flavor.

Did i not say in my opening post that i wasnt hawaiian?

I've never stepped foot in hawaii, nor most of my family. I was never raised on this stuff. The first time I tasted it was a few years ago. I saw it at my grocery store and decided to try it out, so see what all the fuss was about.

[Anonymous No.5724353]

>>5723768
its not mystery meat though

[Anonymous No.5724392]

[Anonymous No.5725713]

I saute' slices, then:
Make spam grilled cheese sandwiches.
Make eggs benedict with Spam instead of ham.
Dice it up and add it to mac & cheese.

[Anonymous No.5725920]

>>5723063
i prefer it cold and sliced by far
