What exactly is a lamb shank? This cut can be found in multiple other types of meat, but under a different name, such as pork or veal shank, to name a few. The lamb shank is located at the ends of the leg, as well as at the ends of the shoulder. Despite its surprising shape for a piece of meat, the lamb shank is accompanied, much to everyone's delight, by generous flavors and a savory tenderness. You may be wondering why it has such a name? Simply put, its oval pear-like shape can often resemble the snout of a mouse. So how do you cook a lamb shank? We recommend preparing it in the oven, or for those who enjoy sweet and savory flavors, the confit lamb shank will be perfect, delivering generous and indulgent flavors that are highly appreciated by food lovers. Butcher's tip: Cook your lamb shanks in the oven at 160 °C for 2.5 to 3 hours, in a covered dish with a base of broth or wine. Baste them regularly during cooking: the meat will become tender, slightly caramelized, and full of flavor.
