About Sheep meat

Sheep meat, commonly referred to as lamb or mutton depending on the animal’s age, is a flavorful and nutrient-rich protein source prized in cuisines worldwide. It is especially popular in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Indian cooking, often featured in hearty stews, curries, and roasted dishes. Packed with high-quality protein, sheep meat is also a rich source of essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, including B12, which supports energy metabolism and red blood cell production. Its fat content varies, with lamb generally having more marbling than mutton, which can contribute saturated fats to the diet. However, when eaten in moderation and paired with a balanced meal, it offers a wholesome addition to a diet. Select lean cuts for a healthier option and enjoy sheep meat as part of dishes that highlight its tender texture and savory taste.
