Hash (food)

Hash is a dish consisting of chopped meat, potatoes, and fried onions. The name is allegedly derived from French: hacher, meaning 'to chop'.^[1] It originated as a way to use up leftovers. In the U.S. by the 1860s, a cheap restaurant was called a "hash house" or "hashery."^[2]

Canned corned beef hash became especially popular in countries such as Britain and France allegedly during and after the Second World War as rationing limited the availability of fresh meat.^[3]

Hash may be served for breakfast, lunch, or supper. When served for breakfast in America or the United States of America hash may come with eggs, toast, hollandaise sauce, or baked beans.^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7]

High-end restaurants offer sophisticated hash dishes on their menus.^[8] Modern preparations have been made with unconventional ingredients such as lamb, fish, venison, turkey, chicken, shrimp, or steak.^[2]^[9]
