Braised Rabbit with Wine

I will continue the series of home-cooked food recipes, the next is this rabbit cooked with wine, vegetables and spices. It is the main method of cooking the rabbit of my godmother, it is very simple but small details matter and be patient with all the stages of preparation.

The result is far, far beyond expectations, a rabbit so fragile, fragrant and tasty I have not eaten yet. It also mattered a lot that it was meat from our own production, raised by my father with corn and grass.

At a large family meal, served with a garnish of rice and pickled tomatoes - it was a delight and pleasure for all.
