Place the lid back on the pot, and cook for another 30 minutes, until potatoes are tender. The potatoes should be immersed in the water by now, but if not, keep the lid on so they can steam.

N. Y. C. CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• ------------Selecting the corned beef brisket------------.
• Go to the store several days ahead of time or you will have to pick out the best of what has been picked over again and again. The best will disappear first.
• Do not freeze.
• Pick out a nice thick slab checking the sides to make sure it isn't a very gristly one.
• Feel it because some butchers fold it over hiding the gristle if there is a lot of it.
• There will always be some gristle and it runs the length of the slab in the center.
• The thicker the slab the better. If you are lucky, you may see some chunk style at a higher price per pound.
• If there isn't a spice bag in with the brisket, you will need to get some whole peppercorns (white and black) and bay leaves.
• ------------Selecting the Cabbage-------------------.
• The heavier and more solid it is, the better it is.
• Smell it to make sure it isn't too bitter.
• You may have to go to another store if the whole batch has a very strong bitter smell. I have had to visit several stores to find a decent batch.
• Keep in mind that the outer leaves will be discarded even if the store has already removed the natural outer leaves to make them look better and fresher.
• --------------Selecting the Potatoes----------------.
• Watch out for the red dyed ones.
• Pick out a bag of medium to small sized ones.
• The smaller the better.
• If you are lucky enough to find the ones as small as salad tomatoes, they are the best.
• -------------Selecting the Carrots----------.
• Get the smallest bag they have unless you like carrots, because you will only use one per pot of cabbage to take any bitterness out of the cabbage.
• Serving a bowl of carrots is a big no no on Saint Patrick's Day.
• Preparing and cooking the meal-----------------------.
• (It's going to take 3 hours with you there).
• Use a large Dutch oven or stock pot that will hold everything all at once.
• Place the brisket (best side up) in the bottom of the pot.
• There's no need to rinse it because nothing bad will survive what you are about to do to it and you will remove the outer marinate.
• Add the spice packet or a teaspoonful of peppercorns and two bay leaves.
• Cover the brisket generously with water and a bottle of beer (optional - adds flavor and is a tenderizer).
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 2 hours.
• During the 2 hours------------------------.
• Scrub and rinse the new red potatoes.
• Remove any eyes and bad spots.
• Leave as much of the peel as you can.
• Quarter them (halve or whole if tiny).
• Cover with water until ready for them.
• Remove the outer leaves from the cabbage until the leaves are entirely light green, rinse and cut it into quarters through the spine so they stay together. Set aside.
• Peel one carrot and cut it into quarters. Set aside.
• Peel the onion and cut it into eighths. Set aside.
• Rinse the bunch of fresh parsley and chop up just the tops into very tiny pieces.
• I find that kitchen scissors do just fine.
• After the 2 hours----------------------.
• Add the potatoes on top of the brisket.
• Add water to cover everything.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Add the cabbage on top of the potatoes and add onion and carrot on top of the cabbage.
• Add water to cover everything.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
• Check the cabbage to see if it is tender.
• If not, simmer another 5 minutes. You shouldn't undercook it and it's hard to overcook it.
• When done-----------------------.
• In a large serving bowl where you can stir the potatoes, crush the garlic clove and rub the inside of the bowl with it.
• Place the potatoes in the bowl while still piping hot and add (at least) a quarter pound of butter and add a handful (more is better than less) of chopped fresh parsley.
• Gently stir until butter is melted, it coats all the potato pieces and the parsley is evenly distributed.
• Put the rest of the parsley into a tiny serving bowl for those who want to add more to their potatoes.
• As I said, more is better.
• Slice the brisket cross grain.
• Hope there is leftovers for breakfast.
• See my March 18th Breakfast! It's a family tradition. We make sure we make enough to ensure leftovers for breakfast the next morning. Finely chopped fried corned beef and cabbage (the entire meal) and coffee is divine. We throw in any leftover parsley.

BOILED DINNER (CORNED BEEF & CABBAGE)

Steps:

• 1. Put the meat in a large crock pot on high heat for 4 hours. Add two cups of water. Put the lid on. About 15 minutes before your time is up, check the meat, put it in a large skillet and brown it a bit. Remove the liquid from the crock pot and pour it into the large kettle.
• 2. Place the meat back into the crock pot. Put the lid on it and reset the crock pot to high and 4 hours.
• 3. Prepare the carrots: peel, rinse and rustic cut (all different size pieces. Place in a huge kettle (I use my canning kettle). Cover with water and then add about three inches more. Bring to a boil.
• 4. Separate an entire stalk of celery, wash and trim, rustic cut (no two pieces are cut the same size). Put the celery in the kettle on top of the carrots.
• 5. Prepare the potatoes by washing them. Leave the jackets on and put them in the kettle on top of the celery.
• 6. Prepare the onions by peeling, and cutting in halves or quarters depending on size of onions.
• 7. Add all of the spices, sprinkling them around the top of the kettle, yet in the liquid. (If at any time you feel you need a bit more water, go ahead and add it).
• 8. Remove any loose or bad leaves from the two heads of cabbage. Cut the cabbage in half, cut 3-5 wedges from each half a head of cabbage. Place the pointed side of the wedges down into the top of the kettle. Keep cutting and adding more to the kettle even if you have to push them down deeper (the rounded side should be just above the water line).
• 9. By now the liquid in the kettle is boiling, turn down the heat and let simmer for about an hour with the lid on.
• 10. Check the briskets for tenderness. Slice them up if they are ready (they should be ready now) Turn the crock pot off, and place the meat back in it and put the lid back on (no liquid).
• 11. Check the Kettle of vegetables, if they are tender... it is done!
• 12. *** I also serve seeded rye bread that has been buttered and some horseradish. Enjoy!
