This is doubtless the best time of year to buy corned beef. In anticipation for Saint Patty’s festivities, it’s almost always on sale. Corned beef generally comes with a packet of cooking spices and while I’ve seen a lot of recipes omit them, a good supermarket will send you home with decent spices worth using. Give them a once-over to make sure they’re gluten-free. This version has an added kick from the beer, so definitely go gluten-free there. However, whether you’re Irish or not, classic corned beef and cabbage simply tastes like home.
