What does it mean to French a rack of lamb?

by Cookthink

To "French" a rack of lamb means to clean meat, cartilage and fat between the tips of the rib bones to make for a neater presentation. It also makes the rack a little easier to cut apart into chops and serve when fully cooked. We like to leave Frenching to the expert hands of our butcher, but you can try it yourself with a very sharp knife.
