I don’t usually cook from recipes, but here goes:

Make stock

  1. Put a strip of bacon and some olive oil in a Dutch oven, and cook on stovetop.
  2. Cut rabbit into sections and coat liberally in salt and pepper, and brown both sides in the Dutch oven.
  3. Add carrots, celery, and onion to the pot and cook until softened.
  4. Add garlic
  5. Deglaze with red wine
  6. Add tomatoes, rosemary, thyme, and chicken stock

Cook rabbit
In oven on 500 Fahrenheit (260 Centigrade) for two hours

Make sauce

  1. Strain solids from stock. Also remove rabbit
  2. Add more chicken stock, heavy cream, and dry English mustard, and cook on stovetop on medium-high heat (15-30 minutes)
  3. Pick rabbit meat from bones, add rabbit meat back into sauce, and simmer over low heat (15-30 minutes)

I also added marscapone and cornmeal dumplings.
