Texelaar minced lamb

Texelaar minced lamb is freshly minced meat with a rich flavor. The animals graze on the salty pastures of Texel, and you can taste that in the meat. You can use it for meatballs, Greek recipes, or as a filling for pies and casseroles. It's delicious with herbs, because that's what lamb calls for.

What is ground lamb?

Ground lamb has its own character. The meat is slightly firmer than ground beef and has a flavor that goes well with herbs such as garlic, cumin, mint, or rosemary. You can use it to make Mediterranean dishes, Middle Eastern kofta, or lamb burgers. The mince holds together well and also works in oven bakes or as a filling for vegetables. What you choose depends on what you feel like eating, but lamb is the kind of meat that calls for herbs that complement the meat rather than overshadow it.

Texelaar

Texel lamb comes from animals that graze on the salty pastures of Texel. The salty soil gives the meat a flavor that distinguishes it from lamb from other regions. It has a firm texture and lots of character. The animals live on the island, where the combination of wind, sea climate, and vegetation gives the meat its unique flavor. Not everyone likes lamb, but if you do, this is a good choice.
