Corned Beef Stroganoff | Food Wishes

Hello, this is chef john from foodwishes.com with corned beef stroganoff. That's right. I love corned beef.

In fact, i love it so much, i have it once a year. And

while i do enjoy the classic corned beef and cabbage st patrick's day preparation, once in a while i like to switch things up.

So, that's what we're gonna do. And

I loved how this came out.

And to get started, we will add a corned beef brisket to a pot, and then we'll sprinkle over the spice pack that always comes with it. And

while nobody's really sure what's in this, we always add it in because that's just what's done.

And then what we'll do is cover this by a couple inches with some cold, fresh water.

And by the way, this is going to simmer for a few hours. And

while it does, once in a while you might want to add another splash of water to the pot just to make sure our meat has enough liquid to simmer in. But

anyway, what we'll do is bring that water up to a boil on high heat, at which point we'll back it down to low or whatever setting maintains a nice, gentle simmer. And

we'll let that cook for two and a quarter hours, at which point it's probably going to look something like this.

And what we'll do is turn off the heat and

transfer that into a bowl where we will let it cool completely before we trim it up. Oh, and do not discard the cooking liquid.

We want to reserve about a cup of that to use in our sauce. And

in the spirit of full disclosure, i did this step the day before so the meat would be nice and cold, which makes it very easy to trim. And.

By trim, all i mean is cut off the surface fat, and yes, i am going to remove most of it, but you can leave a little bit on there if you want.

All right, that is between you and
