Corned Beef and Horseradish
The pairing we come back to
Corned beef is one of the meats on our charcuterie board, and Horseradish is the jar that goes next to it and the roast beef. It is the same match as our roast beef finger sandwiches, which are roast beef, Swiss cheese and Horseradish on pumpernickel.
On a plate of corned beef, set a jar on the table and let everybody take a spoonful. On a sandwich, spread it on the rye. Horseradish is our best seller; there is more about it on the Horseradish page.
Corned Beef Finger Sandwiches
Our roast beef ones, with a swap
Our finger sandwiches call for roast beef, Swiss cheese and Horseradish on pumpernickel. Try corned beef in place of the roast beef and keep everything else the same: cut the sandwiches into triangles, stick a fancy toothpick in each one and set them out on a platter.
