Description
Rabbit meat is tender, lean, but a bit dry, so we usually braise it in sour cream sauce to add some richness. However, under the layer of sour cream, the charm of rabbit fades away, making it hard to tell whether it’s rabbit or stewed chicken. It’s better to prepare tender rabbit in a different, Mediterranean way - with white wine and a whole bunch of vegetables. There’s no heaviness, and the tenderness remains; after all, wine not only enhances the dish's flavor but also wonderfully tenderizes the meat.
