Cherry sauce 1 (12 ounce jar) of good cherry preserves. Get a good one. It makes a difference. 1/4 cup liquid honey 1/4 cup of red wine vinegar. No substitutes. 1/4 teaspoon plus a dash of ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 1/8 teaspoon salt In a medium sauce pan, combine all ingredients, bring to a light simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 to 7 minutes. Add a little bit of cornstarch to thicken if you feel it is needed. If you wish, you can add a package of frozen dark sweet cherries or the ones in the can. I do cuz it looks pretty.

Step 0
Remove the cooked lamb chops from the sous vide, dry them off, scraping off the garlic and rosemary. If some is left on, no worries. It’s still delicious.
-
Step 1
Paint the chops with a thin layer of mayonnaise. This gives it a more beautiful sear than oil or butter.
-
Step 2
I use a blowtorch to sear all sides because it’s easy and very controllable. You can finish it with a torch or stove top, the grill or the broiler. It’s all good and entirely up to you.
