My friend comes from a French Corsican family and is very fussy about food. I stayed with her in her Swiss apartment for a while and bought and cooked a rabbit from the local market. She was horrified that I added fruit, sugar etc. I don’t pay any mind to cooking rules, I’m American, I’ll add sugar or whatever I want if it tastes good to me. She didn’t say much. Next day she went to work and I went to explore the city. When I came home, I asked what happened to the rabbit leftovers? She replied “I ate it”. Oh… I guess my American unconventional cooking was apparently delicious enough for you. After that I never subscribe to “this is the way”. Just make food as you like and enjoy it. I have to say watching Jacques for most of my life, he would agree.

My local mercado sometimes has frozen rabbit. If it has the liver, I'd take it and make a chef snack. But I've used rabbit in a chicken and dumplings format. It can be a pain to peel and shred the meat. When I tried it, the rabbit was a bit drier and stringier than the chicken thighs I cooked along with it, but it was tasty.

I wanted to try the scallion gratin with dinner tonight, so I Googled the recipe and found a different version of his gratin that someone had posted online--the topping was the same, but the scallions were cut into pieces, sauteed in butter with a glove of garlic, then the half-and-half was added to the pan and reduced for a few minutes, and then it went into the pan with the topping. Not sure how the version he shows here turned out, but the sauteed-then-topped version was one of the best side dishes I've had in a long time.

Looked like that rabbit may turn out dry and stringy with that roasting/browning for 30-35 mins, seeing that the meat is so lean. Wonder if slow braising would result in a more succulent taste?
