HOMEMADE CORNED BEEF WITH VEGETABLES



Homemade Corned Beef with Vegetables image

The brisket in this Homemade Corned Beef with Vegetables needs to brine for two weeks, so plan ahead. Pink curing salt develops flavor and while the brisket can be made without it, the result won't be as intense.

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 quarts water
1 cup coarse salt
1 tablespoon pink curing salt
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon mustard seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon black peppercorns, crushed
1 cinnamon stick, crushed
4 dried bay leaves, crushed
8 whole cloves
5 pounds flat-cut beef brisket
1 medium onion, halved
1 medium celery stalk, halved
1 medium carrot, peeled, halved
1 pound baby turnips, peeled, trimmed
1 pound baby carrots, peeled, trimmed
1 medium head cabbage, cut into 8 wedges
1 pound small red potatoes
Dijon mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the brine: Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add salts, sugar, and spices; remove from heat, and stir until salts and sugar dissolve. Let cool.
  • Make the corned beef: Place brisket in a nonreactive container just large enough to hold it. Pour cooled brine over meat. Place 2 small plates on top to keep meat submerged; cover, and refrigerate for 2 weeks.
  • Rinse brisket; discard brine. Place in a large pot. Add enough water to cover by 2 inches. Add onion, celery, and halved carrot, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until very tender, 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
  • Set a steamer in a large saucepan. Add enough water to reach the bottom, and bring to a boil. Add turnips. Reduce heat, cover, and steam until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with baby carrots, steaming 10 to 12 minutes. Add to turnips.
  • Transfer corned beef to a cutting board. Tent with foil, and let rest for 30 minutes. Discard remaining solids from broth, then bring to a boil. Add cabbage and potatoes, and simmer until tender, about 25 minutes. Add turnips and carrots, and cook until warmed through. Transfer vegetables to a platter; reserve broth.
  • Trim excess fat from beef. Slice thinly against grain, and transfer to platter. Serve with broth and mustard.

IRISH BOILED DINNER (CORNED BEEF)



Irish Boiled Dinner (Corned Beef) image

Mouth watering tender corned beef with corned beef flavored potatoes, cabbage, and carrots. This is my great grandmothers recipe from Ireland. This was served with both Irish soda bread and corn bread at our house.

Provided by Ann Hester

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     UK and Ireland     Irish

Time 6h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (5 1/2 pound) corned beef brisket
2 large onions
15 small white (Irish) potatoes
10 carrots, cut into 1 inch pieces
2 heads cabbage, cored and cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Rinse the beef brisket under cold water, and place in a large pot. Add enough water to cover the roast by 6 inches. Peel the onions, and place them in the pot with the roast. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 30 minutes at a rolling boil. Reduce heat to medium-low so that the water is at a gentle boil, cover, and cook for 3 1/2 hours.
  • Remove the lid from the brisket. Remove onions, and cut into wedges. Return them to the pot. Add carrots to the pot, then place the cabbage over the roast. Place the potatoes on top of the cabbage. 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.
  • Remove the vegetables from the pot, and place in a separate serving bowl. Keep the corned beef in the pot until ready to slice and serve because it dries out quickly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Brisket is the traditional cut used for corned beef, but you can also use chuck roast or rump roast.
  • Cure the beef properly: The curing process helps to flavor the beef and make it tender. Be sure to follow the recipe's instructions carefully.
  • Cook the beef slowly: Corned beef is a tough cut of meat, so it needs to be cooked slowly and gently. Simmering the beef in a flavorful liquid for several hours will help to tenderize it.
  • Add vegetables to the pot: Vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and cabbage are traditional accompaniments to corned beef. Adding them to the pot during the last hour of cooking will help to flavor the vegetables and make them tender.
  • Serve with traditional sides: Corned beef is often served with boiled potatoes, cabbage, and carrots. You can also serve it with rye bread, horseradish sauce, and mustard.

Conclusion:

Homemade Irish corned beef and vegetables is a delicious and hearty meal that is perfect for St. Patrick's Day or any other occasion. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this classic dish at home. So gather your ingredients, put on your apron, and get ready to cook up a feast!
