Well, what they had at the store was not only $5 for a tiny can, it
was "imported". Pass! I'll just do what I usually do and make it
from leftover corned beef.

Strange how we cling to things of our childhood. Egg yolk on that
soft bread and butter tastes so good to me!

It usually comes in a rectangular can that tapers toward the top
and must be opened with the old-fashioned sardine-can type key.

Canned corned beef is usually from Argentina or Brazil and has been
pretty much forever. I haven't bought any in probably 15 years, but
Argentina was usually the source.

Hawaiians love that stuff too. Not as much as the Samoans. When Samoans
travel, they'll have canned corned beef in their luggage. Canned corned
beef to Samoans is almost like kimchee is to Koreans. Almost.

The stuff in the rectangular cans these days, is not good. It's minced
instead of chunky like in the old days. The stuff in the round cans is
better. I don't care much for the product myself.

I'll take that over some of the fanciest foods.

I like to break the egg in half and scoop it into a custard cup, yolk
intact. I'll eat the white, then the yolk with the buttered bread. Best
with good sourdough rye.

CHEATER! That is *not* what you wrote!

From Message-ID: >:

"I made some home made hash last month for dad using steamed red potatoes,
fresh chopped onions and a can of corned beef hash."

If you made a mistake in your original post, you can correct yourself in
future posts, but it is BULLSHIT to misquote yourself as if you never made
the mistake. I thought you were better than that.

I didn't. I used canned corned beef and added it to the potatoes and
onions, then topped it with egg. I screwed up my original post. Sorry.

Hm. Canned corned beef seems to work well for me for hash. It sorta
shreds, but not in LONG shreds?

That's one of many things I love about this list. ;-) The difference in
experiences that teach us all!

Iirc, it was "Hormel".

Let's see... Ah yes:

From start:
http://i32.tinypic.com/15drr0k.jpg

To finish:
http://i29.tinypic.com/25p33ty.jpg

I'd posted this to a.b.f around the end of July I think.
I'd just not uploaded to tinypic for this list. :-) There are actually 6
pics.

I'll get around tuit later and post it under an appropriate thread. <g>

I need to steam more red potatoes and consider another batch. The last
one was on the 4th of July. I think tho' I'll try it with white onions
this time instead of yellow.

Mm, bummer.
I don't recall what I paid for that can of Hormel in my pic, but I doubt
it was anywhere near $5.00.

Made me drool and I'm still stuffed from Brunch.
I've not made myself soft boiled eggs in ages.
I generally make pan poached (steamed/water braised) as it's quick and
easy.

I've tried but I just can't seem to like canned corned beef. The only time
I make corned beef hash it's with a hunk of the corned beef I make for St.
Paddy's day... if I'm gonna bother I make at least 20 pounds, but it shrinks
so much I'm lucky to end up with half.... I save the last hunk for hash, I
make extra spuds to dice in too, and that's where the boiled onions end up.
The mixture fills a 12" pan (sometimes I form four large oval patties),
brown one side, flip and brown the other, then with the back spoon make like
eight depressions for eggs... put on the lid and cook till the whites set...
makes four healthy servings.

I find it amusing that you can enjoy Spam and not enjoy canned corned
beef. <g> But, to each his/her own!

I doubt I'd enjoy it on it's own (honestly not tried it straight) but
it's worked just fine in recipes...

And dad loves turkey Spam too. Never made hash out of it (turkey Spam),
but have considered it!

Other canned products I actually like a

Underwood deviled ham
Underwood deviled roast beef

The latter being my personal favorite.

SPAM is always very consistant. I've found canned corned beef to be
extremely variable in texture and taste, and I don't like that it contains
those lumps of gristle, nor do I care for the odor.

I hate the turkey one, I detest all those new fangled flavors, I only enjoy
the original. In fact I was at Sam's Club today and bought four 4-packs.

Many years ago I liked Underwood deviled ham but then they went and changed
the recipe. Those tiny cans are expensive, and gourmet cat food smells
better.

Ok.

So far, the Hormel has worked out well, but this is not a dish I make
with any great frequency.

Like I said, I like the roast beef the best...

And yes they are too expensive for regular consumption.
I purchase them once per year as stocking stuffers.
Along with canned sardines and smoked oysters and baby clams.

Om has done this bullshit for years and denies it every time. Good catch,
though.

Totally none. He's somebody's sock puppet, most likely Greg Morrow and
exists just to be a nasty POS. I'll get around to killfiling "it"
eventually.

Don't waste your breath. ElmerF and SideShowBob are garden variety
trolls. Being nice will not rehabilitate them. Kill them and be done
with it. One for sure is the alter ego of a regular poster. You know
who ElmerF is in cartoons and if you don't know who Sideshow Bob is,
just plug the name into Google. You can figure it out pretty after
that.

Greg's tactic is to change posting names, but he signs his trolls so
he's in gotcha mode. Other regulars who troll aren't that honest. I
deleted another troll yesterday and this time took out over 80 other
saved but not locked posts. It will be interesting to see who
disappeared this time.

How do you tweak that? I'd be interesting to learn. I use MT

AMEN, brother! First we lost the foodies, now we are in danger of
losing anyone who cooks to people who just want to pick at each other
and post insults.

Most of us outgrew that after 9th grade. What could be the motivation
for all the put-downs and bitching here? Are they all on a testosterone
high?

Every post doesn't have to be a recipe, but count me among those who are
really tired of all the petty bickering and name calling.

My mother used to make soft boiled eggs for us when we were sick. She would
use a knife to quickly strike the top of the egg and remove it. Then she
would scoop the egg into a small dish. We didn't have egg cups, but it was
otherwise just what you described. If our stomachs would permit, she would
add a slice of toast to go with it. She only did this when we were sick,
but it brings back rather warm memories of loving care.
