Description
You may have heard of corned beef and cabbage being eaten around St. Patrick's Day; you may have also seen corned beef sandwiches at a Jewish deli. But what exactly is corned beef? We are all familiar with the traditional St. Patrick's day meal in every Irish pub in March, but there is a little confusion over the name ‘Corned Beef'; it has absolutely nothing to do with corn. Before refrigeration, meat was dry-cured in the course “corns of salt to preserve it. So the act of ‘corning' is a form of curing meat.
This recipe uses spices like whole peppercorns, mustard seeds, coriander, bay leaves, and cinnamon to create the classic sweet, sour, salty, spicy and meaty flavor of corned beef with a soft, tender texture.
