Cooking the rabbit recipe brings me back to when I would go porcini hunting with my uncle in the mountains of Abruzzo. Always keeping my eyes open for the wild rabbit, while having fun running around and hunting. This dish pairs well with Frascati Classico, a rare white blend with a complex flavor.
