Jim Grant 4 Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Can't fault it, Like the apple and potato cover. I have started to cook them in a French steamer. A young rabbit, with veg, herbs and seasoning is rather tasty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sauer 2 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 always heard that reason for soaking em overnite is to leech out the "twang" of rabbit when cooking.....was told also by an oldy that they used to soak in milk! i soak in fresh water over nite then some times mix with lemon juice and natural yoghurt to tenderise... read in a game cook book i have that the yoghurt is one of the best ways to tenderise meat! works on rabbit anyway sauer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Grant 4 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) Always soak rabbit for an hour at least. The thing about soaking in milk reminded me that there is a recipe in Mrs Beeton's book for rabbit boiled in milk. 2 young rabbits soaked in water for one hour and then jointed. Pint and a half of milk. 1 desertspoon of flour. 1 blade of mace. A little salt and some cayenne. Mix the flour in a little milk and then add to the rest of the milk in a stewpan. Place in the jointed rabbits with the mace and seasoning. Simmer very gently for 1/2 hour stirring frequently. Recipe from 1893. If you want some Mace (blades of) look up G Baldwin & Co. They do both the blade and ground mace. Don't use English Mace. Mace is the husk of the Nutmeg, English Mace is a Plant most of you will have seen but didn't knoe the name (Achillea ageratum).
