So I have never done a corned beef/silverside before, I'm more of a roast kind of girl when it comes to my meats, so have made lots of them, but DH has requested this as it's a meal he enjoyed greatly during his childhood and it sounds very yummy so I am happy to oblige!
Tonight is the night My 1.3kg Silverside is out and defrosted, good to go... I have a recipe here that says to soak the beef in cold water for an hour before simmering in the pot with my cloves, onion, perppercorns & bay leaves for 1.5hours - This sounds great but other recipes I have read don't say anything about soaking the beef for an hour, what is the difference between soaking and not soaking it?? Do you soak yours?? I am wondering if there are other yummy options also or is Corned Beef generally always cooked the same way?? How do you do yours? I am planning on serving mine with carrots, potatoes, cabbage & homemade white sauce. What do you serve yours with?
Would greatly appreciate your input/advice! I have never eaten let alone cooked corned beef and I want it to turn out marvellously for my well deserving DH!
