"If this is your first time making rack of lamb, I do NOT recommend this recipe, or do some research first, which is what I should have done. The flavors for the actual lamb turned out well, but the actual recipe is very lacking with directions. I didn't know how long to put the lamb in the oven, and my meat thermometer was not reliable, so it ended up undercooked and we ended up having to sear it at the end. Also, I got the racks from the butcher and was not aware of how much I had to trim it and clean it up. It doesn't say what kind of pan to roast the lamb in, so I put it in a roaster - not sure if that was correct or not.

While the flavor of the lamb was good, the vinaigrette did not turn out well. I only got fat juices from the lamb and it made the vinaigrette too greasy and congealed when it cooled.

Again - I'm sure the recipe is good if you know what to do with the lamb, but as a novice, start with something with clearer directions.
