To Cook Corned Beef

Put the beef on in boiling water, and when done, do not remove it from the pot, but let it remain in the same water until cold-this makes it juicy and delightful.

TO COOK A CORNED ROUND OF BEEF.

Wash it well when taken from the brine. Secure it well in a piece of heavy cloth, or a thick coarse towel. Let the meat cook six or seven hours. Do not remove the cloth until next day-it is nice to place in a round mould, as it gives it a good shape. When the meat is thoroughly cold, trim and cut in thin slices across the grain.

Nice with salad dressing.
