Corned Beef is made from beef and can be used in many ways. You can boil it, bake it or just eat it as is. Because it is salted, it can be kept for a tremendously long time. In Western cuisine, this beef is very popular as a breakfast sandwich. In Asian countries, it is processed in various ways because of its long shelf life. It can be used in the preparation of soups and wok dishes, for instance, but also as a sandwich filling.
