Corned beef originated as a way to preserve the meat so it could be eaten after Lent. By pickling the corned beef in brine, it would not spoil over the course of the Lenten fast. It is thought the the Irish produced a salted beef as early as the Middle Ages, but corned beef is not a national Irish food. It was a popular substitute for bacon for Irish-American immigrants in the 19th century. Corned beef and cabbage is the Irish-American version of the Irish bacon and cabbage dish and, in North America, is often served during St. Patrick's Day celebrations.
