Flageolot Beans in Lamb Shank Jus

More pressure cooking, once for the lamb broth, again for the beans.

From gastronomic guesswork


1 lamb shank
6 cups water
4 springs rosemary (fresh)
2 large shallots (minced)
6 cloves garlic (minced)
1 cup flageolet beans (dried)
salt TT

Pressure cook on high (15 psi) the lamb shank and 6 cups of water for 25 minutes (high heat to assume the pressure, low to maintain it with a little stream of steam coming out regularly). Depressurize and add the other ingredients, return to high pressure and cook for 8-9 minutes. A classic French flavor pairing between the lamb and flageolet. Plate with a few strips of trimmed meat from the shank.
