Made the hash tonight after work. I tinkered with the original recipe
and used the quartered red potatoes, onion and carrots that I'd cooked
with the brisket. Used all the vegetables in the chop for the hash.
Also used as much au jus as I could scape out of the pot to
incorporate into the hash. Turned out a lot better than the brisket
dinner I'd anticipated. Sometimes a recipe "reads" better than it is,
no? I wouldn't make the brisket in this fashion again. OTOH, I have
the LA Times Chinese Beef Brisket recipe that I very nearly tried
instead of the one I posted. Gonna try that as soon as I get over
being annoyed about this one. Dammit.
