@kdfrawg Indeed.

That's what I get for getting something from the supermarket, I suppose. Looks like I'll have to resign myself to going exclusively to the good butcheries at 30€/kg if I'm to get anything with any flavour.

Yes, but one never recovers from the indignity of having to get one's own lunch!

That does sound awesome though.

Well, this is easily the most tasteless lamb I've ever put in my mouth.

Sigh.

Is someone going to though?

Sour cream would work…or truffle oil and garlic bread, depending on what mood I'm in. I added cane sugar, black pepper, cumin, and coriander in the blender.

Sounds wonderful.

I'm making your recipe right now, actually…also in the pressure cooker.

@kdfrawg It's so thin (<3mm at the spine) that, as I was slicing carrots, every slice "crackled". I didn't even know carrots made that kind of sound when being sliced.

I say sliced and not cut, because I was just drawing the knife backwards, and it felt like I was going through raw fish.

The scary part of such a thin (and hard) knife, of course, is that the blade won't tolerate any flexing — it'll just snap.

@kdfrawg Thanks :) out of the box, it really was razor sharp, as proven by my present lack of arm hair. Wonder just how sharp I can get it :o

Ah. Nice and cheap. Any bread to go with it?

Back when I quit all soft drinks cold turkey, I found that consuming copious amounts of cold green tea — sometimes with a bit of honey — helped curb the craving for sugar immensely. I know you don't have a lot of time, but it might be worth keeping homemade jam/stewed fruits in the fridge (I think they last for a week or so) and having that with natural Greek yoghurt.
