Instructions: Rabbits, which are best in mid-winter, may be fricasseed, like chicken, in white or brown sauce. Rabbit pie is made like chicken pie. To roast a rabbit, stuff with a dressing made of bread crumbs, chopped salt pork, thyme, onion, pepper and salt; sew up; rub over with a little butter, or pin on a few slices of salt pork; add a little water, and baste often. Rabbits may be fried as you would steak, and served with a sour sauce made like a brown flour gravy, with half a cup of vinegar added; pour over the fried rabbit, and serve it with mashed potatoes.
