SPAM / Canned Ham

Canned cooked pork with a salty, savory flavor. Eat it cold or cooked. Pan-frying until crispy is the most popular way to serve it. Use it anywhere you'd use ham or sausage.

How to use it

  • Slice or dice before cooking. Thin slices crisp up faster.
  • Pan-fry in a dry skillet over medium-high heat until the edges are browned and a little crispy. No oil needed - it has enough fat on its own.
  • Works well diced into fried rice, sliced over eggs, or layered in a sandwich.

Storage

  • Unopened cans keep for years in the pantry.
  • Once opened, wrap leftovers or store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
