What does rabbit taste like?
My husband and I are going out on Friday to a nice restaurant. I noticed that they have braised rabbit on the menu. My husband likes buffalo and lamb, but those are both a little gamey for me. I do like duck and venison though. Would you say that rabbit is comparable to any of those? I'm really curious, but not enough to blow good money on something we won't eat.
Answers:
Rabbit is very tasty when it is prepared properly. Being that it is offered at a restaurant, I'd say they have the recipe down pat. Rabbit, even from the wild, is not very gamey. Of the 4 animals you listed above, rabbit is the least gamey of all. If I had my choices of buffalo, lamb, venison, duck, and rabbit, I would put them in the following order of preference:
Venison
Rabbit
Buffalo
Lamb
Duck
Hope that helps.
