jugged hare. Jugged hare is not an inebriated rabbit, but a young hare (genus Lepus) prepared in an earthenware pot or jug, its sauce sometimes thickened with the animal’s blood. This classic English dish, along with German Hasenfeffer, is the most famous of hare dishes worldwide. The Spanish have a proverb, vender gato por liebre, to sell a cat for a hare, an expres- sion that originated when Spanish hostels palmed off cat as hare and which is remembered by those Spanish markets that even today display hare paws intact to prove it isn’t some Tom from the back alleys. |
