Guest Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 DD3 has to make Corned Beef Hash next week. Does anyone know where I can buy some organic corned beef? Or, how do I make it myself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Rick Stein has a recipe for corned beef Ginette - it requires salting for a few days and then boiling........it doesn't come out exactly like canned corned beef but it does make a good Hash.

Guest Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I couldn't find the Rick Stein recipe, but I found this: http://www.leitesculinaria.com/recipes/pdfs/homemade_corned_beef.pdf Where do I get pink salt then Lesley? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 It seems to be called Prague Powder and you can get it **here** I'd ring them first to make sure though Ginette. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 I think we did ours without the nitrite as we didn't need to keep it for any length of time. We don't mind if the meat isn't bright pink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tessa the Duchess Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 I used to make Salt Beef which used pink salt although the recipe called it salt petre. I managed to buy some from a small kosher butcher. When the butcher closed down I was unable to buy it so made the salt beef without the pink salt and it tasted just the same. I didn't realise it was toxic Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
