Step 4 – Slice and Serve

 

 

Remove the corned beef to a cutting board. Let it rest about 5 minutes.

Trim away the fat if desired (some prefer leaving a little for flavor).

Slice the meat against the grain into ¼-inch thick slices.

Use a slotted spoon to transfer the vegetables to a platter.

Serve warm.

Recipe Tips

Leave the Fat: Cook the beef fat side up to keep it moist and flavorful.

Use the Spice Packet: It adds traditional flavor with peppercorns, mustard seeds, coriander, anise, and bay leaves.

Choose Waxy Potatoes: Use small red or baby yellow potatoes. Avoid russet potatoes, as they break down during cooking.

Peel the Carrots: It makes their color more vibrant.

Slice Against the Grain: This keeps slices tender and intact.

Storage and Reheat

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheat gently in the microwave at 50% power in 1-minute increments.

You can freeze the beef, carrots, and potatoes for up to 2 months. Avoid freezing the cabbage, as it becomes mushy.
