Mince

Hare mince is finely ground meat for sauces, pies, kofta and stuffings—everyday form of this lean or game animal. Darker, stronger and gamier than rabbit, with blood-rich traditional sauces. Brown without steaming, drain excess liquid if watery, build flavour with aromatics from red wine, juniper, bay, forcemeat and classic blood-thickened sauces.

Mince of Hare: composition reflects this culinary part relative to the whole ingredient.

History

Medieval hunt kitchens jugged and spit-roasted hare as high game; mince of hare took a named place in that kitchen trade.

French lièvre à la royale elevated hare to banquet status. Cooks treated mince of hare as a cut with its own timing and sides.

As hare cookery specialised, mince was portioned and sold ready for the pan. Heritage menus restored blood-thickened hare sauces and saddle service.
