Crown of Lamb

Select parts from two loins containing ribs, scrape flesh from bone between ribs, as far as lean
meat, and trim off backbone. Shape each piece in a semicircle, having ribs outside, and sew
pieces together to form a crown. Trim ends of bones evenly, care being taken that they are not
left too long, and wrap each bone in a thin strip of fat salt pork or insert in cubes of fat salt
pork
to prevent bone from burning; then cover with buttered paper. Roast one and one−fourth
hours.
