Corned Beef is the traditional beef product served in breakfasts. Due to the salt-curing process, corned beef is also termed as salt beef. Beef is soaked in a brine solution of water and salt mixed with sugar, and various spices such as peppercorns, cloves, and bay leaves. Then it is prepared either by baking, roasting or boiling.
It has a salty and savory flavor. Due to the curing process, corned beef has a slightly firm and chewy texture. Corned beef is relatively high in fat, salt, cholesterol and sodium. The pinkish red color of the beef comes from the curing salt used in processing. This color is from nitrites used in the curing process While pre-cooked corned beef is readily available, you can also buy it uncured and cook it yourself.
