Piggy Livermush Musubi

This winning liver mush recipe from the 2022 annual Liver Mush Festival in Shelby, is a twist on Spam Musubi, a traditional Hawaiian snack. Build your Musubi by layering Homemade Buttered Biscuits, Strawberry Lemon Jam, Cheesy Sheet Pan Eggs, and Mack’s Livermush. Final assembly includes wrapping it all up with nori seaweed.

Homemade Buttered Biscuits

Ingredients

  • 2½ cups flour

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 2 teaspoons sugar

  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  4. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt—whisk until combined.

  5. Grate butter and add to the bowl; mix together. Add milk to the bowl and use a fork until combined. If necessary, add more milk if too dry.

Final Assembly

After you make all recipes above, you will need one large nori sheet (you can purchase packs of 10 which are 8–9 inches long, labeled as sushi nori) to wrap around your creations. Cut one sheet into several 2–3 inch strips and use one per sandwich. To wrap, moisten one end of the nori strip with a bit of water and encircle the sandwich, attaching end to end.
