To Boil Corned Beef

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no cooking times; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.

  1. Place the corned beef in a large pot.

  2. Cover with water and add seasoning if desired.

  3. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer.

  4. Cook for about 3 hours or until tender.

  5. Remove from pot and let rest before slicing.
