Horseradish Sauce

Easy to prepare and adds a lot of flavor for what some might think is a bland meal. I use this sauce with corned beef but works well with any beef roast.

2 tbs sour cream

2 tbs mayonnaise

1tsp prepared horseradish

1 tbs whole grain mustard

Corned Beef and Cabbage

Or as New Englanders like to call it boiled dinner. I call it simmered dinner. The real key to success with this meal is to let it simmer for at least 3-4 hours. This is a great dish for a slow cooker. I let it simmer all day and then at the last hour put in wedges of cabbage to cook and get tender. The broth is very hardy and flavorful. Ladle some of it over the potatoes with a good dollop of butter. The leftovers make great corned beef hash and Ruben sandwiches.
