Lamb Shank, Frenched, Raw

EverydayRaw

Lamb shank is a premium cut from the lower portion of the leg, featuring meat surrounding a central bone that has been 'frenched' (cleaned and exposed) for an elegant presentation. This well-exercised cut contains dense muscle tissue rich in collagen, making it ideal for slow-cooking methods that transform it into tender, flavorful meat. Raw lamb shank is characterized by its deep red color and marbling, offering significant protein content while providing iron, zinc, and B vitamins.
