These prized anchovies, hailing from the Cantabrian Sea, boast a unique flavour profile marked by exceptional quality and complexity. Their role in a lamb masterpiece is nothing short of transformative.
To embark on this gastronomic journey, marinate the lamb shoulder with a mixture of minced garlic, chopped rosemary, olive oil, and a touch of lemon zest.
