Goat Meat

The muscle meat of a goat, leaner and with a stronger flavour than most lamb. Young goat is milder. Older goat needs slow, wet cooking.

Origin

Eaten wherever goats are kept, from the Caribbean and Africa to South Asia and the Mediterranean.

Flavour

Savoury and a little gamey, milder in a young animal.

How to use it

Braise, curry, or stew it. Quick high heat dries it out.

Storage

Refrigerate and cook within a couple of days, or freeze it.
