Meat

Ground

Ground hare is minced meat for burgers, sauces, meatballs and pies. Darker, stronger and gamier than rabbit, with blood-rich traditional sauces. Very lean species need added fat for juiciness. Keep cold, season boldly with red wine, juniper, bay, forcemeat and classic blood-thickened sauces, do not overwork patties, cook thoroughly in mixed dishes.
