Here’s how to make breakfast corned beef hash from scratch.
What Is Corned Beef Hash?
Succulent corned beef and savory potatoes combined with eggs make up the great corned beef hash recipe. Brought to the United States during the late 19th century by Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants, it became an instant favorite for repurposing leftover meat for new meals.
Corned beef hash can be consumed as a breakfast dish, filling lunch, or even a family dinner. The delicacy combines salty, spicy, meaty, and savory with every unforgettable bite.
Quick Tips
- Make your breakfast hash crispy by using butter instead of olive oil on the potatoes. This will help develop a beautiful crisp on the potato skins.
- Try extra toppings and garnishes like dried parsley, cilantro, or chopped scallions.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can freeze it for up to 3 months. Thaw or defrost the hash the night before in the fridge.
