Herb Mustard Glaze for Rack of Lamb

Herb Mustard Glaze for Rack of Lamb from Southern Living 1981 Annual Recipes Cookbook

I initially had this served by my Mom back when they lived in Pittsburgh in the early 80's --it has been a family favorite and even though I have tried many other recipes  we always come back to this one--yummy!!



     1/2  cup  prepared mustard (we always use Guldens for this)
   2      tablespoons   soy sauce
   1      clove garlic -- minced
   1      teaspoon dried whole rosemary -- crushed (or I used 1 T fresh)
     1/4  teaspoon  ground ginger
   1  egg
   2      tablespoons   olive oil
   5      pounds        racks of lamb (2 or 3 - 2 1/2 pound racks) * used only 1 rack*
     
Check out my seasonal rosemary tree --decorated with little kitchen tool ornaments -- I literally pinched off my rosemary from there--the joke gets to be each year -how long can I keep it alive ...
               

Combine first six ingredients in container of electric blender.  Blend 15 seconds until smooth.

Add oil one drop at a time, to mustard mixture. (as you can see I drizzled not 'dropped' !)

  Blend on low speed until mixture is light and creamy.

Place lamb, fat side up, on rack in a shallow roasting pan; insert meat thermometer in one of the racks, making sure it does not touch fat or bone.
Brush mustard mixture on lamb.( I poured on half mustard mixture- then the remainder halfway through cook time)

Love the sauce so here is midway through and added the remainder of sauce

Bake at 325 until meat thermometer registers 170 (approximately 1 hour and 20 to 30 minutes) 

EACH RACK HAS 8 RIBS - FIGURE ON 3-4 PER PERSON.  YOU MIGHT HAVE TO INCREASE MUSTARD RECIPE FOR MORE RACKS.
