Long term food storage...Spam and corned beef?????

Dont make the same mistake I did. Only buy food your family likes and you know you will rotate on a regular basis.

I like spam fried real crisp, but the LITE spam is TERRIBLE! there is a huge difference between them. Because you are growing potatoes, make a potato and spam bake, it's pretty good. Always cook spam very thin, and use only a small amount when doing a mixture of foods in one pan. Always use less oil because spam is oily, and you can fry it first too, takes some oil out, and it's better that way. If chopped real fine, add celery and onion like you make tuna, that's ok too.

Best is with potatoes.

@Sheila6325 Thanks Sheila. I didnt think about frying thin with potaotes. I tasted it plain and it wasnt that good but maybe i will give it a try like that. Its so convenient to have on hand that i really would like to be able to rotate it. Thanks again! :-)

Here in Britain corned beef is amazing, dunno about american stuff.

Back in the days before refrigeration was widespread and affordable, canned corned beef was a storage staple for many people across the Caribbean.

I saute corned beef up in a pan like I would ground beef - with onion, garlic, green/red peppers, corn (if you like), a dash of Worcestershire sauce, & a couple spoons of ketchup (near the end). Spice to taste while cooking & add a little hot pepper or pepper sauce.

I eat it mixed with plain old rice, or mushed in with some mashed potato.

Yum.

that Corn Beef isn't very tasty, however it will make a very good potato soup.

I have a ton of spam which we are slowly cyclying through the only way i like spam is spam fritters you used to get at the chip shop (in the uk) but i have yet to manage to make one as good as i remember, prehaps since i only ate them as a child my tastes have changed :(

For corned beef, mix with potato and stir-fry. Spam, egg product and onion chopped and made into an omelet is fantastic. Another thing for both, sauerkraut, pickles, some mayo and mustard + a slice of onion on rye with whatever cheese you have on hand is a glorious, albeit stinky sammich. No cooking needed. Maybe a touch of oregano and garlic salt to take away from the raw flavor a bit.

corned beef is just the method by which its cooked and canned..which makes the corned beef an extra long life storable food.. of at least six years or longer i don't know the brand you show there..hereford but the hormal and libbys ones are excellent and you might like them.. 8)

please use a cookbook for ideas and garnishments because as you say they are a great storable and inexpensive food..but it all comes down to buying and storing what you will eat .i fry spam and get it crispy!

[HomeDistiller]

its canned so just leave it you'll get 30 years easy..
