From the Test Kitchen

It’s gourmet breakfast for dinner. Named for the French verb “hacher,” or “to chop,” hash has been eaten in the United States for more than one hundred years. In the 19th Century, “hash houses” used to serve up their favorite spins on this classic, usually featuring potatoes and onions, “chopped” and cooked together. In this dish, we’re mixing it up by using delicate fingerlings, Brussels sprouts, butternut squash and nutty, hearty quinoa.
