What to do with Lamb

Many people have asked me what to do with lamb to take away the rancid taste of the fat which can permeate a lamb roast or chop.  This blend of herbs infused in olive oil and then brushed on the lamb an hour before grilling or roasting will give a great flavour with none of that nasty rancidity which can ruin a special meal.

Ingredients: Rosemary, Mint, Summer Savoury, Thyme, Marjoram, Parsley, Garlic Granules

Seasonings

Over the years I have developed seven different seasonings made from herbs and spices.  They add a wonderful flavour, are easy to use and each one has multiple applications in the kitchen.  Some, like my Chicken Bar-B-Q seasoning were developed from memories of my Mother's recipes.  Others, like my What to do with Lamb seasoning were trial and error (mostly the latter for a while!)  Some are all my own herbs like One, Two, Three Season, others, such as the Better than Salt are made with both my own herbs and ones I purchase.  I am not yet that demented yet that I dry and ground my own Garlic Powder,Onion Powder or Turmeric!  These seasonings should appeal to everyone, (I hope), but especially those persons with diet restrictions who are looking for ways to avoid blandness in their cooking, but are no longer able to use salt.  None of my seasonings contain salt or MSG.  I am going to blog each one and my recipe sheet with hints on how to use the seasonings are sent with each order and will also be up on the site.
