RED FLANNEL STEW
When I was a child, every Saturday night was red flannel night. Grandpa and I wore our red flannel long underwear to supper and Grandma, the cook, dressed in a long calico dress and sunbonnet. We'd eat this stew spooned over fluffy southern-style biscuits. Grandma learned to make the stew from earlier generations of our family. -Kathy Padgett, Diamond City, Arkansas

RED FLANNEL HASH CAKES
Inspired by a classic, these individual red flannel cakes blur the line between hash and hash browns; the crisped patties of sugary beets, Yukon gold potatoes, and smoked bacon aren't complete without a dollop of cool, tangy sour cream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place beets on a large piece of heavy-duty foil. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons oil, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt; season with pepper. Fold foil and seal to form a packet. Place packet in oven, and roast until beets are tender, about 1 hour. Let stand until cool enough to handle. Peel beets with a paring knife or a vegetable peeler; cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 2 cups).
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bacon, and cook, stirring often, 4 minutes. Add leek, and cook, stirring often, until tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in beets and thyme, and cook 1 minute more. Transfer beet mixture to a large bowl, reserving skillet.
- Peel potatoes, and grate on the large holes of a box grater. Add potatoes and 1 tablespoon salt to the beet mixture, and toss to combine.
- Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the reserved skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches of 4 and adding more oil if needed, drop 1/4 cup potato mixture into skillet. Gently flatten hash cakes with a spatula. Cook, flipping once, until cakes are just beginning to crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels as you work, and keep warm in a 200 degree-oven if desired. Serve with sour cream.

RED-FLANNEL HASH
Red-flannel hash is a mostly forgotten American classic. With roasted beets, roasted potatoes, cheese, onions, horseradish and other strong flavors, Jessica Koslow of the hipster-chic Los Angeles restaurant Sqirl both revives it - and makes it beautiful. The sharpness of the dish is achieved with the addition of lemon juice or zest at every turn, that horseradish and a tiny but unusual little salad of asparagus, carrots and greens.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 425. Rub the potatoes and beets with a bit of oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and wrap individually in foil. Put on a rimmed baking sheet, and roast until easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, 40 to 60 minutes, depending on their size. (Remove as they are done.)
- Toss the onions in enough olive oil to coat. When the potatoes and beets are about halfway into their cooking time, add the onions to the pan, and roast, turning occasionally until they're tender but not caramelized, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Combine the crème fraîche and horseradish in a small bowl, and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste.
- Combine the asparagus, carrots, mint and greens in a bowl. Just before serving, drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 teaspoons lemon juice; add 1 teaspoon of lemon zest and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and toss. Taste, and adjust the seasoning, adding more of whatever you'd like.
- When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, crush them with your hands; peel and trim the beets, and chop to about the same size; same with the onions. Mix with the corned beef if you're using it, along with the scallions, cheese and some salt and pepper.
- Put 2 tablespoons each of olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot but not smoking, add the potatoes and beets, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Shake the pan to form a single layer, and cook undisturbed, but adjusting the heat as necessary so that the vegetables sizzle and bubble. Add more butter if the pan looks dry, but the hash should never look oily. Cook until the potatoes and beets are golden brown on the bottom, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Turn, taste, adjust the seasoning, then sprinkle with some lemon juice and salt. Serve topped with a fried egg and a bit more lemon juice, with the asparagus salad on the side.

RED FLANNEL HASH WITH EGGS
The eye-catching nature of red flannel hash belies its sturdily economical roots as the way to use up vegetables leftover from a New England boiled dinner. Beets are the key ingredient, and we added pastrami to give smoke and savor to the sweet root vegetables.

Steps:
- Dice up all your vegetables and Beef into a uniform size. (I find that using left overs from a corned beef and cabbage "stew" Is best. All the veggies have that wonderful corned flavor.)
- Mix up and warm in a sauce pan and put it on stove top or microwaving works just fine.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck roast or stew meat are both good options, as they have a lot of flavor and will become tender when cooked slowly.
- Brown the beef before stewing it. This will help to develop the flavor and give the stew a rich, brown color.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor, color, and nutrients to the stew. Some good options include carrots, potatoes, onions, celery, and tomatoes.
- Use a good quality red wine. This will add depth of flavor to the stew. If you don't have red wine, you can substitute beef broth or water.
- Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour. This will allow the flavors to meld and the beef to become tender.
- Serve the stew with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
