Corned Beef & Cabbage

👩‍🍳 soak corn beef in an ice bath for 1.5 hours, then pat dry on all sides. This step helps reduce the salt level of your packaged corn beef. 

👩‍🍳place corn beef, spices (including the provided spice packet), garlic, onion, carrots & celery in a Dutch oven. Add 8-10 cups of water and cover on medium heat until you reach a very gentle boil.

👩‍🍳reduce heat to low and let simmer for 1.5 hours. Check occasionally to ensure it is not boiling and skim any grey foam that make occur (this is just coagulated proteins that occur naturally when boiling meat, making stocks, or soups)

👩‍🍳Add cabbage, potatoes and additional carrots and cover on low for an additional 1.5 hours. OR roast your potatoes and carrots in your oven at 400F for 40 minutes for some additional texture to your dish! Up to you. 

👩‍🍳serve when meat is tender and starts to shred easily. Cut meat against the grain for serving and enjoy!
