Our Recent Culinary Adventures

We've had lamb for several meals now. Our verdict on the taste of lamb:
Lamburgers: ok
Roast: Pretty good (not quite as good as beef roast)
Lamb chops: Delicious, better than pork chops

We had lamb chops for dinner tonight, and they were just as good as I remembered them. They are small, so you have to cook a lot to satisfy a whole family (we did 8 for 5 people, one of whom is a 2-year-old girl). I marinated them in a homemade sauce, and then my husband grilled them. The lamb we have was not grass-fed. We are interested in seeing the difference in taste between grain-fed and grass-fed. Grass-fed meat is much higher in Omega-3's, which is what we want.

I'm also starting to get used to using cast-iron skillets. We started using them about a week ago (we have one huge one, and one smaller round griddle). They are less bother than I thought they would be (my husband took care of "seasoning" them). We had fajitas last night - the skillet worked great!

And my last culinary adventure: pitting cherries. I used them to make one pie (sugar-free, of course) and froze enough for another pie. I may get enough next week to freeze some more. The pie turned out pretty good, in my humble opinion. :-)
