I am not a huge fan of adding condiments to my dinners and there are only a couple of things I ever use. One of these is Mint Sauce. Traditionally Mint Sauce is meant to couple lamb and a gorgeous Sunday roast dinner of lamb is delicious with a dollop of mint sauce nestled nicely on the plate next to the meat. However, although beef is traditionally meant to be shared with Horseradish Sauce, I can think of nothing fouler, and therefore like a nice teaspoon of mint sauce with my beef as well. To be honest we eat far more beef than lamb when it comes to Sunday roasts so my jar of mint sauce is nicely used up. Some people like theirs to be a little ...  Read the complete review

I use a lot of sauces as I do a lot of cooking, I tend to like to make my own sauces from scratch and in the main I am quite good at it but I cannot for the life of me make a good mint sauce to go with my lamb dishes so I always turn to Baxter's mint sauce. Baxter`s mint sauce is lovely tasting sauce and it also has a good consistency unlike some of the cheaper brands and shops own mint sauces which can be quite awful, a mint sauce has to be just right and Baxter`s one is. The jar is a 250ml one and it costs just under or just over one pond depending on where you shop for it, it is clearly marked with the Baxter`s name and looks every bit as ...  Read the complete review

We had lamb for dinner today and my mum remembered a jar of mint sauce she'd brought for Xmas dinner and forgotten to use. We usually have any cheap mint sauce but this one was Baxters and you can tell it's brill quality and worth paying extra for. It's a dark green mint sauce and you can see that there are loads of mint leaves in it because the sauce looks so bumpy, it's not watery and the main smell is mint and not vinegar. Even though the sauce is mega thick a little goes a long way and you don't need a massive amount to make your lamb even tastier! 2 heaped teaspoons will do most dinners I reckon and only that much because it's so yummy on the ...  Read the complete review

I usually have fresh mint growing in the garden & have tried over the years to make my own mint sauce without much luck I'm afraid - I just can't get the taste which you get with the choice of mint sauces on the supermarket shelves. I've tried cheaper makes such as supermarket ones but always go back to Baxters because it's ideal for our family's tastes. We go through a fair amount of mint sauce in our house - not just to have with lamb roasts but also because I make a lot of yoghurt dressings - just add itbsp of mint sauce to a bowful of plain Greek youghue=rt, a little salt & a big handful of diced cucumer - very refreshing. The ...  Read the complete review

There is nothing quite like the taste of roast lamb, given the choice of cut I would prefer to buy the shank end of the leg, it seems to have plenty of flavour. It is such a shame that lamb has become such a luxury, but if you are truly going to enjoy lamb you certainly need to invest in some good quality mint sauce. Baxter's are purveyors of the finest condiments, relishes, sauces, pickles and preserves. In 1869 George Baxter borrowed the sum of £100 from his relatives and opened a small grocery shop in Fochabers, which stands in the Laich of Moray, Scotland. Georges wife began making jams and jellies in the back of the shop and their ...  Read the complete review
