Corned Beef & Cabbage with Guinness Stout Jus and Horseradish Whipped Cream, and Irish Soda Bread
The rich Guinness jus (juice), is full of rich, silky, and umami notes, and when served piping hot, enriches the meat to a new level. Topped with tangy horseradish whipped cream takes it even further!

Ingredients
Horseradish Whipped Cream
Corned Beef & Cabbage with Guinness Stout Jus
Irish Soda Bread
Instructions
Prepare the Horseradish Whipped Cream:
  1. Line a medium-size sieve or strainer with 2-layers of paper towels or cheesecloth. Set over a bowl, being sure the sieve doesn’t touch the bottom of the bowl. Set aside.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with the whisk attachment, mix together: heavy whipping cream, hot sauce, granulated garlic, white pepper, and salt.
  3. Turn mixer on HIGH, and whip cream mixture until firm peaks form, and the whipped cream can hold its shape, about 1-1/2 to 2 mins.
  4. Turn mixer off and add horseradish. Mix on HIGH for 10 seconds to combine.
  5. Remove whisk and bowl from mixer. With a rubber spatula, clean off whisk, and scrape the bottom & sides of the bowl, folding to combine.
  6. Spoon the horseradish whipped cream into the lined sieve or strainer. Refrigerate until ready to use. Excess liquid with strain into the bowl, and the cream will thicken into a rich mousse-like consistency. Change the soaked paper towel if preparing an hour or longer before serving. This can be done a day in advance. Once the liquid has drained, the Horseradish Whipped Cream can be transferred to an airtight container, and will keep refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Part One: Prepare the Corned Beef & Cabbage with Guinness Stout Jus
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. Remove corned beef from packaging, set aside seasoning packet, if included.
  3. Rinse the meat well to remove the packing brine liquid.
  4. In a bowl large-enough to accommodate the corned beef, fill with cool water, and soak meat for 30 minutes. Repeat again with clean water for another 30 minute soak.
  5. Pat the meat dry with a clean kitchen or tea towel. Season both sides with 1/2 tsp ground black pepper.
  6. Heat a large Dutch Oven or stock pot over MED-HIGH heat. Add olive oil.
  7. Carefully place the corned beef into the hot pot, fat-side down. Brown in oil for 4 mins.
  8. Flip meat over, and brown for an additional 3 mins.
  9. Remove meat from pot, and transfer to a plate. Set aside.
  10. Carefully pour-out the grease from the pot, leaving 1 tbsp in the pot. Return pot to heat and deglaze the pan with 1 ounce of Irish whiskey, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits (fond) from the bottom.
  11. Stir in the Guinness Stout, 2 cups chicken stock, and 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer.
  12. Carefully add the corned beef to the Guinness mixture. Bring up to a simmer, cover with a lid, and simmer over MED-HIGH heat for 10 mins.
  13. Transfer the covered pot to the oven, and continue to cook for 1-1/2 hours.
Meanwhile: Prep the Vegetables
  1. Remove any wilted and leaves from the cabbage, rinse and pat dry.
  2. From top to bottom, slice cabbage in half. With your knife, cut a “V” into the core of each half to remove. Slice each halves into four wedges. Set aside.
  3. Rinse the baby Yukon potatoes, pat dry. Set aside.
  4. Rinse carrots. With a vegetable peeler, peel carrots, then slice at an angle into 1-1/2 inch long pieces. Set aside.
Prepare the Irish Soda Bread: When the Corned Beef is at 40 Minutes
  1. With the Corned Beef still in the oven, increase oven temperature to 350 degrees.
  2. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together: flour, buttermilk powder (if using fresh buttermilk, omit powder), sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk well to combine baking powder and soda for an even rise.
  3. With a pastry blender, or with two forks (or in a food processor), cut cubed chilled butter into flour mixture until it resembles course meal.
  4. In a small bowl, beat two eggs, measure out 1 tbsp of the beaten egg and set aside to brush the top with later.
  5. Mix remaining beaten egg into the 1-1/2 cups water (or buttermilk, if using) until just combined.
  6. Add water-egg mixture to flour mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until just combined, being sure to lift the spoon from the bottom of the dough to reach all of the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  7. Transfer dough to a floured work surface, and gently knead by hand for 15 seconds. The dough will be sticky, so dust your hands with flour, and use a pastry scraper to work the dough quickly.
  8. Roll dough into a ball, drop into greased dish.
  9. Cut a 1-inch deep cross (X) across the top of the loaf.
  10. Gently brush the reserved tablespoon of beaten egg evenly atop the crossed loaf.
  11. Scoot the pot of corned beef to the side, and place the Irish Soda Bread aside it in the 360 degree oven.
  12. Bake the Irish Soda Bread for 50 mins. The corned beef and the bread will be ready to come out of the oven at the same time.
  13. Carefully remove the bread from the oven to a cooling rack. Allow to cool in the baking dish for 10 mins, then remove loaf to the cooling rack to cool completely.
Part Two: Finish Preparing the Corned Beef & Cabbage with Guinness Stout Jus
  1. With thick pot holders, CAREFULLY remove the hot pot of corned beef from oven, and set on the stove.
  2. With tongs or a long meat fork, carefully transfer the corned beef to a plate. Cover with aluminum foil, and set aside.
  3. Turn stove on to MED-HIGH, and bring the pot of the Guinness juices (jus) to a simmer. There should be about 1-1/2 to 2-inches of liquid. If necessary, add more water, or more Guinness or stock to reach that level of liquid.
  4. Add potatoes to the simmering Guinness jus, cover, and cook 10 mins.
  5. Add carrots to potatoes, being sure the carrots are nestled in the jus. Cover, and simmer 10 mins longer.
  6. In a single line, nestle cabbage wedges, (the point of the wedge down) atop to potatoes & carrots. Cover with a lid, and allow the cabbage to steam over the other vegetables for 10 mins more. (The cabbage should still be bright green.)
  7. Immediately remove from heat, and set aside while the corned beef is carved.
  8. With a sharp carving knife, cut away the fat from the top of the meat. Discard.
  9. Carve the corned beef against the grain of the meat into 1/4 inch thin slices. In a fan fashion, lay out slices down the center of a serving platter, garnish with a couple wedges of cabbage and a couple potatoes & carrots to denote corned beef & cabbage.
  10. Serve the remaining cabbage in a vegetable serving dish, garnish with chopped parsley.
  11. With a slotted spoon, spoon the potatoes & carrots into another serving dish, pour the melted butter over the top, give a quick toss, and top with minced chives.
  12. Pour the hot Guinness jus into a gravy boat or a small pitcher.
  13. Serve the Corned Beef and Cabbage topped with hot Guinness jus.
  14. Spoon the Horseradish Whipped Cream into a sauce boat, and serve on the side.
  15. Serve the Irish Soda Bread with sweet butter, topped with sea salt. Serves 8
