Labbani, Harfi and Jatha: Understanding Product Labels

The names Labbani, Harfi and Jatha help distinguish whole-lamb products in the market, but they are not alone sufficient to determine the exact weight, age or number of guests. The way names are used may differ between vendors, so use the written product specifications as your reference when comparing.

The name is not a weight table

A store can display several weights under the same label. Also, the weight of a carcass does not accurately prove its age. Do not infer age from the number of kilograms, and do not consider every product bearing one name to be identical in size and cut.

Read four fields together

Type of meat or variety, name, weight or range, and order form: whole, half, or box. Then review the product status and processing options. This integrated reading prevents comparing half of a large package to the entirety of a smaller package based on name alone.

How do you choose to cook?

Choose the quantity and cuts that suit your recipe and tools. Large pieces require a different cooking plan than cubes, even when the two products have the same name. If a particular occasion requires special specifications, ask for specific clarification before purchasing.

Example from the catalog

In ALRAQI MEATS there are Labbani, Harfi and Jatha Naimi Kashmiri options within declared weights. A useful comparison is between the actual pages: weight, portion size, cost, and number of planned meals. We do not give fixed ages for these products here because the brand name alone does not prove them.

Important question before ordering

If you want a product for an event that has specific age requirements or specifications, don't just limit yourself to the department name or image of the carcass. Check directly which product data is suitable for your purpose. As for daily home meals, the priority is to match the type, quantity, and cooking method to what you actually need.
