NATIONAL CORNED BEEF HASH DAY

September 27 means we are adding flavor to every meal while cleaning out the fridge, because it's National Corned Beef Hash Day!

#CornedBeefHashDay

Making corned beef hash is a great way to use up leftovers. Corned beef hash became popular during and after World War II. Since rationing limited the availability of fresh meat, corned beef filled the gap. Cooks became creative with herbs, spices, and leftovers. Nothing was wasted. In lean times, stretching a meal became a priority.

The Hormel Company claims it introduced corned beef hash and roast beef hash to the United States as early as 1950. However, World War II reporter, Betty Wason, lists a corned beef hash recipe in her Cooking Without Cans cookbook printed in 1943. Other forms of hash existed as part of the American diet since at least the 19th century. The numerous recipes available before that time also attest to the country's love of the dish as does the existence of many “hash houses” named after the dish.

HOW TO OBSERVE CORNED BEEF HASH DAY Serve up some corned beef hash for breakfast or supper. Either way, you'll be adding flavor to your meal. So, make a lot and invite a crowd. It's the best way to #CelebrateEveryDay!

I have never “understood” Corned Beef Hash. The few times I had it, CBH seemed like an imitation of Imitation meat, aka Spam. Not that there’s
anything wrong with that.
Maybe I never had CBH prepared the right way, vs from a school cafeteria.

Restaurant made CBH with eggs is a favorite when on vacation.

The way I have always had it was canned, fried gently in a pan and flipped as it dries out and forms a crispy crust on the underside to the pan. Eventually becomes fairly dry and crispy. Serve with runny yolk fried egg over the top and perhaps a little hot sauce or Ray Ray’s Yooper sauce.

I vote for national tuna casserole day. After all, the fake modernist church had no right to tell Christians they no longer needed to fast from meat on Fridays. Prayer and fasting are the only way to conquer evil.
