The 'Kitchen-Craft' series from the 30s always had an eye on economy and filling, rather stodgy fayre - one programme was dedicated to pork pies, another to frying batter. Here a "countrywoman" demonstrates the old-fashioned way to bake a rabbit pie, padded out with bacon fat, with some top tips to nervous chefs ("use salt and pepper sufficiently, but carefully"). For those who despair at Delia Smith's 'How to Cheat at Cooking' (she, presumably, would have just defrosted a Fray Bentos), this is a pleasing reminder of traditional cookery values. (Alex Davidson)

Indeed and it did look attractive. I would have eaten the pie hot, though that would have required a gravy instead of water earlier on. Whilst I have had rabbit pie etc I have never seen a recipe including eggs like that. Again that is something I have seen with true fish pies and is often associated with Eastern European cooking.

I appreciated the way she did the top of the pie. I always double crust my pot pies but this makes the base crust unnecessary. I also will copy her edge trim---I have never seen it done in that manner. Has anyone else. Place a center funnel whole to add stock after the baking??? This is a whole new concept to me. It makes so much sense--coping that too!

@@phoebegraveyard7225 this is true, in fact the British government made sure that people were given a smalll allotment (Say 30 yards square? So that they could grow vegetables on it. They were giving free seeds by the ministry of agriculture. People grew all sorts of things depending on the season and even grew their own potatoes. If they had their own land at the back of the house, they were allowed to grow pigs, chickens, and other small animals, such as hares, guinea fowl, partridge, etc, but they had to use scraps to feed them with in order to comply with the rules. People did this, because it would supplement rations.

Strange to think that my recently deceased father was two years old at the time this was filmed and the lady in the video could well have been the same vintage as my paternal grandmother. My father detested rabbit because he was forced to eat it so much of it during “The War”. This just goes to show that educational videos, presumably shown at the local cinematographer ´s theatre, were all the rage then, and are by no means a recent invention.

One lady said that even though her family was hungry quite a bit of the time, they couldn’t kill the rabbits. They said that rabbits weren’t very tasty plus killing them was just something they were uncomfortable with. It’s just interesting to hear different peoples experiences.

In the UK we have become unused to seeing meat still on the animal to stop our squeamishness. Would you have been as revolted if the film was about making chicken pies, or is it just because it's a once-cute bunny that gets the chop? Great film, by the way!

Magnificent. Unfortunately I am a city-reared state-side person of a younger gener- ation. How in the world could I have really learned this were it not for the inter- net. Technology, like life itself I guess is kinda like life, unlike the the romance novel you can't always depend on a happy ending.

I realize they are on rations but I would need more flavor. Some onions, garlic, salt, pepper and rosemary would be a start. White wine, thyme & savory would be a bonus.

WW2 didn't begin in Britain until 1939. In 1934 they were still working their way through the great depression but food was not rationed. To be fair, I'd probably include herbs (the traditional "sage and onions" taunt from "The Wind in the Willows" comes to mind) but I think you'd find that both the wild rabbit and the bacon back then were much more flavoursome than their modern counterparts. I have a theory that the increasing numbers of flavours that we find in food these days is to counter the fact that the underlying ingredients are increasingly flavourless as a result of factory farming (of both plants and animals). This doesn't deal with the problem of the nutrient content in foods going down.
