How to Turn Your Brisket into Corned Beef
Corned beef is simply brisket that has been cured in a brine for several days before cooking. The process is easy and well worth the wait!
The Ingredients:
- 1 gallon water
- 1 cup kosher salt
- ½ cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
- 1 tbsp pink curing salt (optional, for color)
- 1 tbsp black peppercorns
- 1 tbsp mustard seeds
- 1 tbsp coriander seeds
- 1 tsp allspice berries
- ½ tsp cloves
- 4-5 garlic cloves, smashed
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 cinnamon stick
The Instructions:
- Make the Brine: In a large pot, bring water to a simmer. Add salt, sugar, and all spices. Stir until dissolved, then let cool completely.
- Submerge the Brisket: Place your brisket in a large container or zip-top bag and cover with the cooled brine. Weigh it down if needed to keep it submerged.
- Refrigerate for 5-7 Days: Let the brisket cure in the fridge, flipping it once per day.
- Rinse and Cook: After curing, rinse the brisket thoroughly. Place in a large pot with fresh water, add additional spices (like peppercorns and bay leaves), and simmer for about 3 hours until tender.
