Time 2h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

One 4- to 5-pound beef brisket
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 bay leaves
2 cinnamon sticks
2 star anise
1 teaspoon whole allspice
1 teaspoon whole cloves
1 teaspoon fennel or dill seeds
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon peppercorns
6 carrots, stems trimmed, quartered
3 1/2 pounds medium Yukon gold potatoes, quartered
1 head Napa cabbage, cut into large chunks
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
1 cup fresh parsley leaves, roughly chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the brisket, brown sugar, bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, star anise, allspice, cloves, fennel seeds, mustard seeds and peppercorn in a large Dutch oven or pot and cover with cold water by about 2 inches. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the brisket is just fork tender, about 1 hour and 20 minutes. You can check your brisket by lightly pulling against the top of the meat with a fork: If the meat begins to lightly shred, it has cooked long enough. If your brisket needs more time, cover and continue simmering, checking the brisket every 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Add the carrots and potatoes to the simmering pot, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the vegetables to an oven-safe plate, cover with foil and keep warm in the oven. Add the cabbage to the simmering pot and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the cabbage to the oven-safe plate, cover with foil and return it to the oven. Remove the corned beef brisket to a rimmed baking sheet, cover with foil and let rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter and mustard in a small saucepan over medium heat until combined. Add the flour and whisk to make a roux. Add the milk while whisking constantly and simmer until the sauce is beginning to thicken, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in the parsley and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve on top of the corned beef slices and the vegetables.

Time 3h15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 corned beef brisket, about 4 lbs
1 corned beef, spice packet
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 bay leaves
1 medium brown onion, sliced
4 garlic cloves
4 lbs small red potatoes or 4 lbs yellow potatoes
8 large carrots, peeled
1 medium head of cabbage, cut into wedges
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup grainy mustard, for serving
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup reserved corned beef cooking liquid
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the corned beef in a large dutch oven, along with the contents of the spice packet included in the corned beef, brown sugar, bay leaves, onion, and garlic. Fill with enough cold water to cover the beef. Bring to a boil over high heat, lower the flame, cover and simmer for 2 hours or until the beef is tender.
  • Use a slotted spoon to remove and discard the onions and garlic (they've done their job and have given all their flavor already).
  • Peel the potatoes, I use red potatoes and peel only the center because I like the look of it, but feel free to peel all of it or don't peel at all. Cut the carrots into large chunks. Place the potatoes and carrots into the pot with the brisket. Return to a boil over high heat and then reduce heat and simmer until fork tender, about 30 to 40 minutes. It depends on how big your potatoes are.
  • Transfer the potatoes and carrots to a platter and keep warm. Add in the sliced cabbage, I like to keep the core in the cabbage so that the sliced wedges stay in tact, making it easier to move later. Bring back up to a boil over high heat. Lower the flame and simmer for 15 minutes until the cabbage is tender as well.
  • Transfer the cabbage to the platter along with the potatoes and carrots and move the brisket to a cutting board. Cover loosely with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain. Arrange the sliced beef along with the vegetables on the platter. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with grainy mustard and horseradish sauce (recipe follows).
  • To make the sauce, set a medium saucepan over moderate heat with the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 30 seconds or so. Slowly whisk in 1 cup of the liquid that the beef cooked inches Cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the sugar, vinegar, horseradish, salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right corned beef: Look for a brisket that is at least 3 pounds and has a good amount of marbling.
  • Brine the corned beef properly: This helps to tenderize the meat and add flavor. Be sure to follow the recipe's instructions carefully.
  • Cook the corned beef slowly: This allows the meat to become fall-apart tender. Simmer the corned beef for at least 3 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This adds color and flavor to the dish. Some good choices include potatoes, carrots, cabbage, and onions.
  • Make a flavorful parsley sauce: This is a great way to add a touch of elegance to the dish. Be sure to use fresh parsley and butter for the best flavor.

Conclusion:

Corned beef and cabbage is a classic Irish dish that is perfect for St. Patrick's Day or any other special occasion. It is a hearty and flavorful meal that is sure to please everyone at the table. With a little planning and effort, you can make a delicious corned beef and cabbage dish that will be the star of your next meal.
