No one from our family is Irish. But the Irish corned beef and soda bread are such delicious meal. We always have this meal on the St. Patrick day. Not really celebrate St. Patrick, but enjoy the delicious Irish meal. Nowadays, you can buy the corned beef in any super market. But it contains a lot chemicals for tenderness and preservative. You don't want to eat too much. But homemade is totally different. You will never forget after having a homemade corned beef and cabbage.
我们家人没有爱尔兰的血脉。但是爱尔兰式的煮咸肉和苏打面包真的是好好吃。尤其是在St. Patrick day的前前后后,总也少不了这一餐。市场有卖腌好的肉,但是放了好多化学添加剂和防腐剂,不能吃多,自己做的就大不一样了。吃一次会叫你念念不忘。。。


1) Irish Soda Bread: 爱尔兰式苏打面包
2 cup Unbleached flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
3 Tsp butter
1 large egg
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 tsp salt
Mix all dry ingredients together, cut butter into the flour mixture. Mix egg and buttermilk together. Add egg mixture to flour mixture and form a dough. Cut X on the dough. See below pictures. Bake it in the preheated oven for 30 minutes at 375F, or until golden brown.
将所有干料混合在一起,切入奶油混合均匀。另取一只容器将鸡蛋和 buttermilk 混合均匀。把鸡蛋混合液加入面粉混合物中,稍揉匀成一个圆面团,上面切成十字,放入375F预热好的烤箱里烤30分钟,或直到外表金黄。


Let bread cool slightly and slice it. Some recipes add raisins. They are delicious, too.
烤好的面包稍凉切片。很多人喜欢加葡萄干,味道也很不错。


2)Corned Beef with Cabbage: 爱尔兰式煮咸肉和大头菜
A)Brine Brisket: 腌肉
Butcher has prepared couple package of Brisket when we bought half of grass-fed beef. I made brine myself. Use a glass container, add water, salt and sugar as two parts of water, 1 part of salt and half part of sugar. Also add 1 tsp of Coriander seeds, mustard seeds, 4 bay leaves, 8 pepper corns, 1 cinnamon stick. Bring to boil and cool completely. Add brisket and keep it submerge. Refrigerate it for 2 weeks.
买的半只走地牛中有切好的 Brisket,自己来腌。
取一个玻璃容器,加水,盐,糖,比例是2:1:0.5。加入加入一小勺香菜籽,芥末籽,4片香叶,8只胡椒粒,一只桂皮。将水混合物煮开晾凉,放入牛肉,用重物把肉压入液面下,在冰箱中腌两星期。
B)Make corned Beef and cabbage: 煮咸肉和大头菜
Wash the brisket totally. line chopped onion and celery on the bottom of the dutch oven. Lay brisket on the top of the vegetable. Add water to cover the brisket and bring to boil.  Turn low heat and continue to cook for 3.5 more hours. 3 medium potatoes and carrots chopped into big chunks. A cabbage cut into 6 wedges. Put all of them in the dutch oven and continue to cook another 30 minutes, or until vegetable are tender.
腌好的咸肉洗干净,把切成大块的洋葱和芹菜放在锅底,咸肉放上面,加水末过咸肉,煮开转小火再煮3.5小时。取3只土豆和胡萝卜,切大块,一只大头菜从上切6大块,放入锅中在煮30分钟直到菜煮熟。


Slice the brisket and arrange all vegetable in the serving plate. Slow cooked corned beef is so tasty and melted in your mouth.
煮好后取出肉稍凉,逆着肉纹路切片,摆在盘中,蔬菜摆两旁,小火慢煮的牛肉入味,入口即化,蔬菜也味道鲜美。真的是好好吃。
