Gigot à la Moutarde Roast Lamb with Herbal Mustard Coating
added 03/07/08
When brushed with this mixture, the lamb becomes a beautiful brown as
it roasts.
Serves 8-10
1/2 cup Dijon-type prepared mustard
2 Tbs. soy sauce
1 clove mashed garlic
1 tsp. ground rosemary or thyme
1/4 tsp. powdered ginger
2 Tbs. olive oil
A 6-lb. leg of lamb
Blend the mustard, soy sauce, garlic, herbs, and ginger together in a
bowl. Beat in the olive oil by droplets to make a mayonnaise-like cream.
Paint the lamb with the mixture and set it on the rack of the roasting
pan. The meat will pick up more flavor if it is coated several hours before
roasting.
Roast in a 350°F oven, 1 to 1-1/4 hours for medium rare; or 1-1/4
to 1-1/2 hours for well done.

Meet Ed Howes, Natural and Specialty Foods Merchandiser
He’s the guy who always has an out-of-the-box idea. He’s the guy who always wants to do something special to celebrate National Rice Month. And he’s the guy who likes to dress up to make kids and customers smile, whether it’s for Halloween or for a food demonstration and tasting event or even for no reason at all. Ed Howes is the Co-op’s Natural and Specialty Foods Merchandiser. He’s been here a long time, serves on the Co-op Board of Directors, and works very hard to help bring in many of the unique and delicious foods that have made us famous over the years. October is a special month for Ed, not only because it gives him the opportunity to dress up again, but also because it’s the month we honor the Fair-Trade movement—something near and dear to his heart. Fair Trade shortens the path from farm to table, reducing the amount of high-priced middlemen in-between and providing a living wage for the farmer. Want to learn more?
