How to Clean a Rack of Lamb with String - CHOW Tip

Janine Falvo, chef de cuisine of Carneros Bistro & Wine Bar in Sonoma, California, cleans a rack of lamb using a piece of string. She ties one end to the sinks faucet (an oven handle would work as well), and then loops the other end around the bone, scraping off the meat and fat with an upward motion.

TRANSCRIPT
A great way to save money and time is to buy a rack of lamb that has not been cleaned already by your butcher. The first thing you'll do is remove all the excess fat. Then take a string and anchor it to a stable base in your kitchen, like a faucet or perhaps your oven door. Wrap the string around the bone and pull the fat away from the meat. The string works very well because it not only saves your knife but it also cleans the bone much cleaner than a knife could ever do. Once the bone is clean your lamb will look like a butcher or a chef did it right in your own kitchen.

its about tips / sharing idea, what's wrong with that? If anyone don't agree just leave it, why so fuss about it & should you hv better idea post a video response!

I'd just eat it with the fat on it.

[Kevin Diep]

That fat is flavor, and easily digestible. Processed foods are what make Americans fat.

You still have no idea what you're talking about, but I really don't care anymore because this is the most pointless argument ever.

Have fun deriving pleasure from looking like an idiot on the internet, everybody else watching these videos gave your retarded suggestion of "just go to a store and buy it pre sliced" a -6 because of how much you are missing the point.

you are something else.....
