Lamb

Rich, marbled lamb, with a pronounced, slightly musky flavor, a Southern staple.

Lamb offers tender and delicate meat with a fine and slightly sweet taste. In Mediterranean cuisine, it is essential for festive roasts, spicy tagines, and slow-cooked stews, pairing perfectly with aromatic herbs and the region's tangy flavors.
