A change in my medications is being made to address a disorder I have been experiencing this summer. I will be monitored, but I am no longer allowed to engage in certain activities I previously have enjoyed as they exacerbate my condition. I apologize for being disruptive, in a better state of mind this was generally not an issue for me. |

Koreans ain't regular people because they don't spontaneously burst into flames when a concoction of rice, Spam, and nori, is placed in front of them. They must have Hawaiian blood in them. I haven't seen anyone serving army stew on this rock. Not yet anyway. Maybe people over here think it might cause them to burst into flames. http://www.thegardenisland.com/2016/...subi-lives-on/ |

These are typically sold in packages of 10 small pieces. Some Japanese nori will have a teriyaki type glaze to them. Most nori sold is just plain. |

I asked my wife about it and she said her mom used a gas stove and fanned the nori over the flames. I'm pretty sure a old style electric element stove would work. I have no idea if a halogen glass top would work though. My wife said it was a wonderful treat for them when they were kids so I'll have to make some using a frying pan. |

It is sushi rice that is made with a seasoning of vinegar, sugar, and salt. Both are made with short/medium grain rice. I used to watch my auntie make sushi rice back in the early 60's. The old-school way is to mix in the vinegar, sugar, and salt, seasoning in a wooden tray with a wooden paddle while fanning the rice. The rice is mixed using a slicing motion, being careful not to smash any rice grains. Cooling the rice down while mixing it keeps the rice from forming clumps. Musubi is easy to make, making sushi rice and sushi is a lot more involved. OTOH, the local style sushi made in Hawaii back in the old days was relatively easy to make. The modern day sushi served today in Japan, the mainland, and the world, is some pretty sophisticated and artistic food. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0psSxSaKkw&t=2402 |

Ann Arbor tends to be a little cutting edge. I'll be impressed when, for example, Findlay, Ohio, gets a poke restaurant. I Googled for spam musubi in Ann Arbor, but didn't turn up anything.

I like how the poke bowl is view on the mainland. Our poke bowls are simple affairs with fish being the main player while on the mainland, the poke is seen as part of a bigger orchestration. You guys are going to transform the Hawaiian poke bowl into something better - with latin influences. In Hawaii, fusion has meant mostly combining Hawaiian, Asian, and American, ideas about food. On the mainland fusion style means a mix of Asian and latin influences. That's very cool. Our part in this is as an intermediary between Asia and the Mainland. I bought a bowl of li hing pineapple at Safeway the other day. It's fresh pineapple with Chinese salty plum powder added. Hawaii has been going nutty for the intensely sour, salty, li hing powder for the last twenty years. We put it on almost everything. It is surprising that li hing powder never made it to the mainland but I think the time is right for it. The younger generation of eaters are looking for new tastes. It's going to come from the Mexicans instead of Hawaiians. https://www.popsugar.com/food/What-Li-Hing-Mui-24679295 https://www.eater.com/2017/3/6/14809...moy-how-to-use |
