Corned Beef. [silverside] Take a pce of beef and place in pot ,add water till just covered. Add 1 tbsp. treacle ,1tsp. brown sugar ,1tbsp malt vinegar. good pinch each of black pepper.rock salt,parsley flakes , caraway seeds,Italian herbs , plus wafer thin peel of whole tangelo & juice. Keep pot boiling till treacle is dissolved. then put on simmer  until nearly cooked and add to pot of liquid & meat  ,  2 cut & quartered apples,1 quartered potato,1/2 sliced parsnip, 1 sliced carrot,1/2 onion sliced. 1tsp. mustard [french grained ]. 1tsp Colmans  dry mustard .1tsp. treacle .1tsp.malt vinegar.  and cook till soft.Remove when cooked & put aside in dish. Use 1-2 dstp. cornflour for thickening for the piquant mustard  sauce made from the liquid in pot.Pour a little of liquid into jug,  but use discretion in amount when  adding liquid to make dry cornflour into a paste then  add some more liquid slowly, to make it a little runny while  stirring all the time, so so that it will not go lumpy. when it thickens nicely ,pour into another jug and reserve the  remaining liquid in pot for later piquant sauces.If however it  thickens too much use the reserved liquid and add   for required thickness of sauce.  If not piquant enough..  add 2tsp. brown sugar and 3 tsps malt vinegar.  stir well and taste also.  Alternate Suggestion :  Leave the meat and veges in pot with liquid overnite for  better taste of tangelo and other veges. both can be reheated the next day & scooped out before serving.  the meat ,is easier sliced up first then reheated.[TM]mc.      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  |
