Lamb grass fed fore shank ( 2 pcs )

Grass-fed Irish Lamb Shanks (2 pcs)
Grass-fed Irish Lamb Shanks with Bone is a premium cut of meat that stands out with its rich flavor and tenderness, perfect for slow-braising in red wine. It originates from the lush, green pastures of Ireland, where lamb is renowned for its exceptional quality and juiciness. Ireland’s temperate and moist climate, along with traditional farming practices, ensures the lamb’s exceptional taste and texture.

Characteristics
Irish lamb is prized for its natural flavor and tenderness. Raised on the rich, green pastures of Ireland, the lamb’s flavor profile reflects the quality of its environment. The lamb shanks are taken from the lower part of the leg and include the bone, which adds depth and richness of flavor during cooking. This cut is carefully trimmed to ensure maximum flavor and tenderness, making it perfect for slow-cooking. The lamb feeds on a nutrient-rich grass diet, which enhances its flavor and marbling, resulting in a melt-in-the-mouth experience. The product comes vacuum-packed in a 2-piece pack to preserve freshness.

Health Benefits
Irish lamb is a nutritious choice, rich in essential nutrients such as protein, iron, and zinc. It also contains beneficial omega-3 fatty acids, which contribute to heart health. The natural diet and animal-friendly farming practices ensure that the lamb is free from artificial additives, providing a healthier option for consumers.

Cooking Tips
To prepare Grass-fed Irish Lamb Shanks with Bone, follow these steps:

1. Preparation: Remove the meat from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for even cooking. Pat dry with paper towels to enhance browning.
2. Seasoning: Rub the lamb shanks with your favorite seasonings. A combination of rosemary, garlic, and olive oil works wonderfully with lamb. Season generously with salt and pepper as well.
3. Cooking: Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F). In a large ovenproof pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the lamb shanks on all sides until browned. Remove the shanks and set aside. In the same pot, sauté chopped onions, carrots, and celery until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Pour in 500 ml of red wine and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Return the lamb shanks to the pot, add fresh herbs (such as thyme and bay leaves), and enough beef or lamb stock to come halfway up the shanks. Cover the pot and place in the oven. Slow-braise for approximately 3–3.5 hours, or until the meat is fall-off-the-bone tender.
4. Resting: Once cooked to perfection, remove the pot from the oven and allow the lamb shanks to rest, covered, for 10–15 minutes. This allows the meat to reabsorb its juices, resulting in a succulent dish.
5. Serving: Serve the lamb shanks with the braised vegetables and red wine sauce. Accompany with creamy mashed potatoes or a fresh side salad.

Enjoy the exceptional flavor and tenderness of Grass-fed Irish Lamb Shanks with Bone, bringing a taste of Ireland to your table.
