If you’ve ever tried to butterfly a leg of lamb, you know how difficult the task can be. I try to avoid this at all possible & dread the Christmas lamb butterflying all year long.
But things have changed. In the same way that you learn to knit better if you can watch someone, cooking can be one in the same. Check out this Epicurious how-to video on Butterflying a Leg of Lamb. I promise there will be no more dreading after you watch this video.
*UPDATE: The Epicurious Video is nowhere to be found. I suggest you check out these links instead:
