    Snowshoe Hare Recipes?

    Today I was lucky enough to bag my very first hare and now I am left with a slight conundrum, I haven’t the faintest idea how to cook the bugger! I’ve never tried to cook anything remotely similar to rabbit before. I don’t suppose anyone is willing to share Grandma’s rabbit stew recipes, eh? Appreciate any input, thank you.

    Butter bunny is always a hit in our house. Put the meat in the Instant Pot or pressure cooker with a jar of butter chicken or vindaloo sauce from Costco and cook for 45 minutes. Had my kids screaming "MORE BUNNY!" at dinner when they were toddlers.

    Brunswick stew, or cooked with mustard vinaigrette in tinfoil.

    I cooked one up in an Indian curry and another in a Thai red-curry. The Indian curry dish was ok - the hare was fantastic in it though. I’d never cooked an Indian curry from scratch, so I just chalked it up to my inexperience. I more or less followed the MeatEater cookbook for their rabbit curry recipe.

    The red curry was fantastic and the hare meat was perfect for it. Thai red curry is a staple dish in my house though, so that might’ve played into it.

    I’m keen to get a few more and try them in my butter chicken recipe.
    If it cant be done with one shot, it shouldn't be done.

    Substitute hare for chicken and find a good lettuce wrap recipe, delicious.

    I'll see if my Dad's old recipe for Rabbit Surprise is still kicking around at his house back in Wpg. We used to snare them in the winter and the Surprise recipe was my favorite.

    I too find the meat similar to chicken, in both taste and texture...I have always liked making soups with snowshoe hare...

    If it's like domestic rabbit, don't over cook it whatever you do.
