    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
    2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary leaves
    3 garlic cloves, minced
    1/2 cup Dijon mustard
    1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
    2 racks of lamb, "frenched" (see note)

    Note: "Frenching" refers to scraping the meat off the tips of the bones. Ask your butcher to leave 1/8 inch of fat on the meat.

    Recipe



    1. In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade, process the salt, rosemary, and garlic until they're as finely minced as possible.

    2. Add the mustard and balsamic vinegar and process for 1 minute.

    3. Place the lamb in a roasting or sheet pan with the ribs curving down, and coat the tops with the mustard mixture.

    4. Allow to stand for 1 hour at room temperature.

    5. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

    6. Roast the lamb for exactly 20 minutes for rare or 25 minutes for medium-rare.

    7. Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil.

    8. Allow to sit for 15 minutes, then cut into individual ribs and serve.
