Wrong measurement for OPT primary inductance ?

I have a digital inductance meter which is normally used to measure the inductance of a choke. The reading is OK becuase for the Choke
However, is it the same for measuring the inductance of a SE OPT. I've recently purchased Lundhal OPT which states itself having minimum inductnace of 75H. However, with my digital inductance meter I could only get 35H reading ? (I did not connect the Secondary at all)
I believe Lundhal having good reputation would not blow that much. Is there a more accurate method of measurement ?
