Best Corned Beef Recipe

One thing you need to do is soak the corned beef in water for about four hours, then drain the water and run fresh water and soak it again for about another four hours. This will leech a good portion of the salt out of it before you cook it. Then, you put the corned beef on to cook and simmer it for several hours before you add carrots, potatoes, and cabbage. You also can add pepper corns to the corned beef before you simmer it...the pepper corns add a bit of spiciness to the corned beef. I had a friend that thought he could cook, bought a corned beef and just slapped it in the pot and cooked it. It turned out salter than eating salt out of the box. He did nothing but complain about it. I made a corned beef like I wrote above and he about went nuts over it and ate the whole works in one sitting. He couldn't believe how good it was and how tender it turned out. The two things to keep in mind is to soak the salt out of it and the other is to cook it slowly so that the flavor stays in and it becomes tender. Hope I've helped some.

Hi, eurekafemme. You can try adding onions, bell peppers, pepper and garlic in it to see how it will taste. This is not one of my favorite kind of foods. But you can try these added ingredients to see if this will taste good for you. I am glad that you like it. I am sorry that I can't say the same about me.

here are some ways we cook our corned beef. 1. cook it with potatoes, chopped, add onions and garlic. saute garlic in cooking oil, then onions, then potatoes and the corned beef. you can add some water to make it saucy. and don't forget to add some soy sauce or fish sauce. 2. you can beat some eggs, then add it to corned beef, then fry. something like omelet. 3. you can cook it with okra. do the number 2 option. slice okras length wise. remove the seeds and put some corned beef mixed with egg. then fry.

It's been a long time since I eat corned beef. I'm not good in cooking but I tried to cook corned beef too but it is always a disaster. My mother knows how to cook the corned beef right and she knows what we like.
