I'm way cuter and way fuzzier than that fairly scary looking representative of the species.

We have rabbit here about once every week or two.
1.) Cut rabbit in serving size pieces. Reserve liver/kidneys. We dispense of the head, but if we were starving Koreans we wouldn't...
2.) In a good dose of olive oil, brown the pieces in a large chef's pan or frying pan that has a cover you can put on later. When it's almost as brown as you want it, add a couple cloves of (peeled) smashed garlic.
3.) When the pieces are browned, add about 1/2c -3/4c. cider vinegar and a couple big sprigs of rosemary, bit of pepper and salt. Cover and put on low heat, just barely simmering, for 45 min.- 1.hr. If the cover isn't tight and it gets too dry, add a bit of extra water or vinegar. At the end you should have just a hint of liquid and the rabbit will have a nice, almost caramelized, coating.
4.) If your OH wants the liver/kidneys you can saute them up separately near the end and give them a bit of the sauce. Otherwise they could be a good treat for your dog or cat.
"Regular"-size rabbit yields about 4 servings, so that's 2 meals for us.
Tastes like chicken! (Well, actually, it's a bit yummier.) Low in fat/cholesterol.
A second classic recipe uses olives, a third dessert wine and dried prunes/raisins.. Also popular around here during the hunting season is a ragu' made from wild hare.

I so very much want to do the joke, but I think i'll have to abstain. I'm sorry. You'll have to make your own joke.

Our bunny (cleverly named "Peter" for you anthropomorphs) thinks rosemary & raisins are yummy!
Our kid has officially banned household hausenpfeffer jokes. I think when this one goes to his great reward he's going to be buried deep under the mango tree...

A European friend drove me up this incredibly steep, windy mountain road in a valley north of Milan to a restaurant perched at the top of a cirque. They served an incredible meal of venison and rabbit, with appetizers, wines, fruit, cheeses, and salads as accompaniments. A truly memorable meal in a memorable place. When I got home I told my kids that I'd had Bambi and Thumper for dinner!

Close. Increased spending on the same lifestyle = inflation.
