Successful Dinner PartyJen and I held a successful dinner party this evening at our place. It was in honour of Mother’s Day, and my mum was in attendance along with the rest of my family. On offer was a leg of lamb (that had been in our freezer since Post-Christmas Christmas) and Jen’s groovy orange-date chicken. The lamb was fantastic. It was well done (just like Mum likes it). We love our electronic meat thermometer which has a probe that stays in the meat on a long oven-proof cable. The cable leaves the oven and connects to the readout which also has a ‘temperature timer’ that beeps when your meat reaches a programmed temperature. Using this great gadget, and armed with some basic knowledge about doneness and temperature, you can know exactly what state your meat is in without having to cut it open! Our lamb came out of the oven at 147° F, then its pan was covered with foil, and the roast stood until the temperature came up to 159° F. This is a temperature of just well done. The centermost slices had a teensy bit of pink in them in the right light. If you prefer medium, slice at about 152°-153° instead. In any case, the meal was grand. And we had a good time before and after too. I think my dad liked the french folk cds. Off to bed now, it’s been a long day!
