Cooking delicious lamb - meat selection and preparation

When buying, look at the color of the meat. It is dark in the old ram. Choose light tender flesh of a young lamb. The most delicate is the cut from the lower back and dorsal part. For any dish, a ham is also suitable. Hearty pilaf and stew will come out of the brisket. The shank is taken to the cold.

Lamb has a specific smell. Several useful tips to remove or drown out the smell:

  • marinate the meat before cooking. Marinating will remove the specific smell. Suitable tomato or pomegranate juice, kefir, vinegar, soy sauce or other marinades. Marinate lamb for 30-40 minutes. If you marinate longer, the meat will become tough;
  • trim the fat from the meat. The smell comes from him;
  • soak meat in cold water for half an hour. Change the water every 10 minutes. Another tip - soak meat in milk for an hour instead of water;
  • rinse beef after soaking under hot water;
  • add spices to your meals. Aromas will drown out the specific smell.

Odorless boiled lamb

Before choosing one of the culinary methods for getting rid of a specific smell of meat, we make sure that the reason for this lies not in the quality of the purchased product (an old animal, violations in the slaughtering technology or storage process).

We remove the smell of lamb in the following ways:

  • We cut off thin films from a piece of meat and, most importantly, fat. It is in it that the main source of all “fragrant” troubles often lies.
  • Pour the meat for several hours with milk (add chopped garlic) or beer, kefir or a mixture of lemon juice and sparkling water.
  • We make a weak solution of vinegar, leave the lamb in it overnight. It is advisable to change the used liquid several times to a clean composition.

  • garlic, used in moderation, will be an excellent component that gives the meat a pleasant taste and aroma.

Mutton is a favorite meat of the peoples of the East, where, in addition to the famous dairy lambs, the meat of young castrated rams or sheep no older than 3 years is valued; it is light red in color with white, elastic fat. If the taste of lamb fat is unattractive to you, carefully remove it. Lamb should not be cooked too long: it loses flavor and becomes too dry and tough, it is better to leave it half-done, pink and juicy. The preparation of lamb depends on the culinary tradition: in the East, meat is boiled and stewed with dates and apricots, olive oil, tomatoes, garlic and wine are obligatory in the recipe of Mediterranean dishes, in the northern regions they prefer roast lamb with potatoes. Excellent seasonings for lamb will be thyme, oregano and marjoram; the taste of fat is beaten off with English mint sauce on vinegar. Lamb goes almost exclusively with red wines.
