Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Place the corned beef in a large deep pot and cover with cold water by 6 inches. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Cut the onions in half lengthwise, peel them, and poke one clove into each half.
- When the water comes to a boil, turn off the heat and add the onions, bay leaves, thyme, and chiles. Cover the pot with aluminum foil and a tight-fitting lid.
- Cook the corned beef in the oven 4 to 4 1/2 hours, until it's fork-tender. (Carefully remove the foil and pierce the meat with a fork. If the fork doesn't penetrate easily, the corned beef is not ready.)
- While the beef is cooking, peel the carrots, leaving 1/2 inch of stem. Cut the carrots in half lengthwise. Trim the turnip tops, leaving 1/2 inch of stem attached. Cut the turnips in half through the stems. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch chunks. Remove any tough outer leaves from the cabbage and slice it in half through the core. Cut each cabbage half into three wedges, leaving the core intact to hold the leaves together.
- When it's done, remove the meat from the oven, let it cool a few minutes, and transfer it to a baking sheet.
- Turn the oven up to 375°F.
- Return the meat to the oven for about 15 minutes, until it browns and crisps on top. If it's not browning to your liking, you can pass it under the broiler. Let the corned beef rest 10 to 15 minutes before slicing it.
- Meanwhile, skim the fat from the broth. (There probably won't be very much.) Taste the broth. If it tastes good-not too salty but nicely seasoned and meaty-set half of the liquid aside in a medium saucepan. If the broth is salty, add a little water before setting half of it aside.
- Add water to the broth in the large corned-beef cooking pot until you have enough liquid to poach the vegetables. Bring to a boil over high heat, then turn the heat down to medium, and add the potatoes to the pot. Simmer 5 minutes and then add the cabbage, turnips, and carrots. (If your pot is not big enough, divide the broth into two pots, adding more water if needed.) Simmer over low heat 15 to 20 minutes, until the vegetables are very tender. Test each type of vegetable occasionally, and if one is ready before the others, use tongs or a slotted spoon to take the vegetables out of the broth.
- Taste the reserved broth and the vegetable-cooking broth. Combine them to your taste. If the vegetable broth tastes best, use it for the finished broth. If the vegetable broth is watery but has good flavor, add a little of it to the reserved broth, to your liking. Or, if you like the meat broth best, use it by itself.
- Place the cabbage on a large warm platter. Slice the corned beef against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the meat over the cabbage. Scatter the other vegetables over and around the platter. Pour over a good quantity of your chosen broth, and drizzle with the parsley-mustard sauce. Pass the extra broth and sauce at the table.
- Place the shallots, vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl, and let sit 5 minutes. Pound the parsley with a mortar and pestle and add it to the shallots. Whisk in the mustard and olive oil, and season with a squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of pepper and a pinch more salt, if you like. Be careful not to overseason, since the corned beef may be on the salty side.

Steps:
- Place the brisket, brown sugar, bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, star anise, allspice, cloves, fennel seeds, mustard seeds and peppercorn in a large Dutch oven or pot and cover with cold water by about 2 inches. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the brisket is just fork tender, about 1 hour and 20 minutes. You can check your brisket by lightly pulling against the top of the meat with a fork: If the meat begins to lightly shred, it has cooked long enough. If your brisket needs more time, cover and continue simmering, checking the brisket every 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Add the carrots and potatoes to the simmering pot, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove the vegetables to an oven-safe plate, cover with foil and keep warm in the oven. Add the cabbage to the simmering pot and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the cabbage to the oven-safe plate, cover with foil and return it to the oven. Remove the corned beef brisket to a rimmed baking sheet, cover with foil and let rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain into 1/4-inch slices.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter and mustard in a small saucepan over medium heat until combined. Add the flour and whisk to make a roux. Add the milk while whisking constantly and simmer until the sauce is beginning to thicken, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in the parsley and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve on top of the corned beef slices and the vegetables.
