Cooking Tips
🍖 Lamb
- Lamb pairs beautifully with bold herbs like rosemary, mint, and thyme.
- Cook lamb chops to medium-rare (130°F / 54°C) for the most tender result.
- Marinate tougher cuts in yogurt for 4+ hours to tenderize.
Nutrition: Rich in protein, B12, zinc, and iron. Grass-fed lamb has higher omega-3 content.
Storage: Refrigerate up to 3-5 days. Freeze for 6-9 months.
🥛 Yogurt
- Greek yogurt is thicker and higher in protein — perfect as a sour cream substitute.
- Use yogurt as a marinade for meat — the acid tenderizes while adding tang.
- Don't heat yogurt on high or it will curdle — temper it slowly.
Nutrition: High in protein, calcium, and probiotics. Greek yogurt has about 15g protein per cup.
Storage: Refrigerate and use by the expiration date. Keeps 1-2 weeks after opening.
