I've found a huge flavor difference (less) when I buy pre chopped garlic. Fresh is best. Just my 2 cents.

[@KensGreekTable]

Couldn’t agree more Shanon!!! Freshly grated is always better regardless of veggies, cheeses, meats etc....

[@tonyg7940]

100% agree with that statement 👍

[@elderpittman]

I definitely agree 100%

[@mascaradetime3984]

💯 Percent agree I will take the time but I will never use the jar garlic not even the pre-peeled garlic cloves in the plastic jars or bags because no one has invented a way of harnessing that flavor of fresh minced there's just nothing like peeling your own clothes chopping it up and using it fresh I can always tell garlic that's come from a jar I can't STAND IT!! Go for fresh it really is worth the time!

[@blaqueen28]

I've been making this recipe for around 3 years or so. I always come back to it because it is in my opinion the best roast lamb recipe. The only change that I make is poking a few holes in the top of the lamb and placing a clove of garlic and a small sprig of rosemary and each.

[@fengariii]

Best video. I've been look EVERYWHERE for a good lamb recipe. And this hit all the flavors. Thanks.

Thank you Ken for taking your time and making an effort to bring this video to us, much appreciated. I also buy the minced garlic from the supermarket to use in my dishes it comes in very handy when I don’t have fresh garlic cloves at hand. I pray the prayer of sanctification over my meal and I’m good to go 😊

[@serap1]

thank you for the recipe. I really appreciate. I am sure you know this already but just wanted to remind you. Garlic is medicine. As soon as using readily crushed with long shelf life or extreme heat treated for shelf life, it kills all the goodness. I loooove the smell and taste of thyme and rosemary. Fresh lemon juice 👌 And I agree with Greeks. I hate anything pink or blood is running. I think that's French.

Love this video.. love Greek cooking thru n thru.. watched italian and UK and now the Greek way 😎 Sicily lemons are the best or greek sun soaked ripe probably just as good also anchovies over to much salt content for flavour but a bit of salt n more pepper for sure.. frozen or fresh small peas along with potato can also work...

Thank you Ken. I loved your passion for Greek food. One question please. If I season one day earlier is it ok to add lemon from the beginning or I add lemon just before putting in oven?

[@KensGreekTable]

I would avoid adding salt too early because it will draw out the moisture and give you a tougher and drier outcome....
