14 JULY 1789 - PARISIANS STORM AN ANCIENT SYMBOL OF ROYAL TYRANNY: The
French Revolution's flash point is centered on Paris' Bastille, as
upwards of 1,000 insurgents attack the medieval fortress and prison
to acquire its large stores of gunpowder. Bastille Day will be
celebrated from then on as a national holiday in France.
1 lg Clove garlic; minced
1 tb Fresh rosemary; minced
1 tb Olive oil
2 ts White wine vinegar
2 ts Dijon mustard
1/2 ts Salt
1 1/2 lb Leg of lamb *
Fresh ground black pepper
* Brought to room temperature. A butterflied leg of lamb
has a center portion and two flaps. This recipe uses only
the center portion. The remaining portions can be stored
in the freezer for later use. The larger flap (sirloin)
can be grilled. The smaller one is excellent to use for
kebabs. If you're cooking for a larger group, use the
entire leg.
Prepare a medium-hot charcoal fire. Or heat oven to
450+|F/230+|C and line jellyroll pan with aluminum foil.
Combine garlic, rosemary, oil, vinegar, mustard and salt
in a small bowl. Rub over entire surface of lamb. (Can be
done as long as 12 hours ahead of time, if desired.)
Place lamb on grill or baking sheet and sprinkle
generously with ground pepper. Grill or bake until it
registers 120+|F/49+|C on an instant reading thermometer
for rare, 22 to 25 minutes; or longer as desired. Let rest
for 5 minutes before slicing.
