1
Make the Spam Musubi sticks.
-
2
Mix soy and oyster sauces in a shallow pan, add sugar, stir until dissolved.
-
3
Slice Spam into 1/4 inch slices, then into 1/4 inch sticks.
-
4
Toss into the marinade, and let marinate for 20 minutes (room temperature) to 4 hours (fridge).
-
5
Once its done marinating, fry Spam in 1 Tablespoon of oil over medium low heat until fully cooked and sauce has caramelized, 15-20 minutes.
-
6
Make the sushi rice.
-
7
Mix hot cooked rice with seasoned rice vinegar, fan while mixing to coat the rice grains with the seasoned vinegar (see photo at the related link).
-
8
Use up to 1/2 cup rice vinegar if needed.
-
9
Make the tamago (scrambled egg).
-
10
Mix the eggs with the sugar and salt.
-
11
Cook in 1 teaspoon of oil until set, lifting up the edges to let uncooked egg run underneath and rolling cooked egg over onto itself to make a rolled up sleeping bag type of end result.
-
12
Cool on cutting board for a few minutes, then slice into long sticks about 1/4 inch wide.
-
13
To assemble the rolls, it helps to have a bamboo sushi rolling mat covered in plastic wrap.
-
14
Place a sheet of nori on the bamboo mat or on a cutting board.
-
15
Spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the entire sheet of nori.
-
16
Flip over the nori so the rice is facing the plastic-wrapped bamboo mat (this, my dear son, is how it becomes an inside-out roll).
-
17
Youre now looking at the bare, green nori.
-
18
Slice a schmear (yes, a schmear) of mayo along the long side of the nori closest to you.
-
19
Place a row of Spam musubi sticks, a row of tamago sticks, and a line of kohlrabi matchsticks on top of the schmear of mayo.
-
20
Roll up the nori using the bamboo mat (or hold tightly with your fingers to keep the roll shape).
-
21
Moisten the bare edge of nori with a bit of water before sealing.
-
22
Repeat until you run out of nori, or rice, or fillings.
-
23
Slice into 8 pieces per roll using a sharp knife wiped with a wet towel in between slices.

24
Serve room temp (better than cold) dunked in soy sauce.

Keeps until the next day, travels great in an insulated lunch box.
