Ingredients:
- 2 cups of water
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard, divided
- 1 medium head cabbage, cut into 8 wedges ( approx. 2 pounds)
- 3 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill, OR
- 1/2 teaspoon fried dill weed
- 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 pound corned beef brisket
Directions:
Place brisket and water in Dutch oven; cover tightly and cook 1 hour at 350 degrees (F). ( It is very important to simmer the meat slowly because boiling will cause meat to become tough.) Turn brisket over and continue cooking, covered, 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until meat is tender. Remove brisket from cooking liquid and place, flat-side up, on rack in broiler pan so
surface of meat is 3 to 4 inches from heat. Combine honey with 1 tablespoon mustard; brush half of mixture over top of brisket and broil 3 minutes. Brush with remaining mixture and continue broiling 2 minutes, or until brisket is glazed. Meanwhile, steam cabbage 15 to 20 minutes, or until tender. Combine remaining mustard with butter and dill; spread over hot cabbage wedges. Carve brisket diagonally across the grain into thin slices and serve with cabbage.
Makes 6 to 8 (3-ounce) servings.
