Lamb in the bag

Feb 3rd, 2010 | By Tobias | Category: Meat and Poultry, Recipes

I do admit, that the photo has not much to do with the title. The bag is used for cooking only. I use a baking bag, to be precise. This high tech product allows a smooth and slow baking in the oven but also enables the things to get some colour at the same time. [...]
