Milk-Fed Pyrenees Lamb Shoulders x 2, Frozen, +/-1.4kg

Milk-Fed Pyrenees Lamb Shoulder: A Delicate and Exquisite Delight!

The milk-fed Pyrenees lamb shoulder is a true gourmet delicacy, prized for its exceptional tenderness and subtly sweet, milky flavour. Raised in the lush mountain pastures of the Pyrenees, these young lambs are exclusively fed on their mother's milk, resulting in meat that is pale pink, velvety soft and beautifully marbled. The taste is mild yet deeply flavourful, with a delicate richness that melts in the mouth. Unlike older lamb, it has a more refined, almost buttery quality with no overpowering gaminess, making it an excellent choice for those who appreciate a more subtle, sophisticated meat.

Cooking Suggestions: How To Cook Milk-Fed Pyrenees Lamb Shoulder

• Slow-roast: Cook at a low temperature for several hours until the meat is fall-apart tender.
• Braise: Simmer in a flavourful broth with herbs and aromatics for a meltingly soft texture.
• Grill: Cook over a wood fire for a lightly charred crust and smoky depth.
• Confit: Slowly cook in its own fat for an incredibly tender and rich result.
