Okay, you don't have to worry about leftovers until the 18th, but since I will be otherwise engaged-let's talk about what to do with the leftover corned beef, potatoes, and etcetera.
Obviously there's good old-fashioned hash and eggs for breakfast. But you can also do soup. I'd use some vegetable stock to keep it on the mild side and since the beer flavoring is there, add another bottle of it. Probably 4 C of stock to 1 bottle of suds will do just fine.
Use some fresh veggies. In my house the veggies would be the first to go anyway (I mentioned that we're not fans of corned beef on Sunday). I love soups like this because it's just "dump and heat". Everything is already cooked, so this works out very well if everyone's hungry and in a hurry.
Use fresh carrots, celery, onions, red potatoes and shredded cabbage. Let those cook for about 20-30 minutes before adding the leftover corned beef. Now the next step is totally up to your own preference-you can serve it with some Irish Soda Bread and butter, as is-or you could thicken it up to make it more of a stew. I usually use equal parts of cold water and corn starch, combined well and stirred into slowly to the hot soup. Let it cook to thicken.
Soda bread is a pretty easy quick loaf to do yourself, but during this week you will probably find some very nice ones in every bakery section of your local market-so why bother?
Until the 25th, Bon Voyage ladies!
I heard you all talked about soda bread and I have never tried one. Anyone can give me a description?

Looks like the recipe didn’t add currant berries... They are in the bread in the picture though.. Add a cup or 2. :)
Thanks Jenz, seems easy enough. I will give this a try with my Chinese hands. So it will become Chinish bread?...

I actually prefer a less “sweet” bread with St Pats...so I tend to go with the Irish Brown Soda Bread found here.

The sweeter breads are lovely too, just more what I go for for breakfast or tea.
Suziq: that link does not work.

Now I understand the Soda stands for baking soda. LOL I keep looking at the recipe and thinking of Pops - where’s the soda??? Silly me.

I made 4 loaves of soda bread this week for batch number 1. I have my great grandmothers recipe( she was born and lived and died in Ireland) and it really stands apart from any others I have ever had. With that comes the responsibilty of having to make it for people every year...LOL
But I love it!
Also..I make a huge old pot of ham cabbage and potatoes every year....the leftover stock is AWESOME for ham and bean soup! We have come to look forward to that every year. I actually made a multi veggie ham and bean soup last year! Just gorgeous!
Ok...love your recipes! Thank you for sharing!
