Corned Beef Hash: Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use canned corned beef instead?

Although fresh corned beef is ideal, you can substitute with 1 (12-ounce) can corned beef, adding less salt, to taste.

Can I use a different kind of potato?

Russet potatoes or Yukon golds are both great in this recipe.

How can I store leftovers?

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days.

Is corned beef hash freezer-friendly?

Yes! Corned beef hash can be frozen for up to 3 months. Let cool completely; portion into plastic freezer bags in individual servings, squeezing out any excess air before sealing. Lay the bags flat in a single layer in the freezer (this will help them freeze quickly). To reheat, thaw overnight in the fridge, reheating over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through and desired crispness is reached.
