Cooking Greek With My Family - Toula's Rabbit Stifado Greek Recipe
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 окт 2021
- Cooking and enjoying Greek food with family was at the centre of my recent trip to Greece. And what a better meal to have, than a traditional Greek Rabbit Stifado, prepared and cooked by my dad's other half, Toula.
Rabbits are not considered pets in Greece, so their meat plays a part in Greek dishes. Toula's recipe uses plenty of spices, but the secret is in making sure the meat is marinated for many hours and the onions are kept in cold water for a long time.
In this recipe Toula used:
For the marinade
Two whole rabbits, cut in large pieces
3-4 cinnamon sticks
4-5 bay leaves
4-5 whole allspice
Plenty of extra virgin olive oil
4-5 cloves
2-3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped (optional)
For the remainder of the dish
6-7 tbsp chopped tomatoes
2 tsp tomato paste
2 kilos small onions or shallots, peeled
Salt & pepper to taste
Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup of red wine

Gonna cook it for Christmas. Thank you for the idea man. Sending love from Poland.
Hi Karol. Our love and best Christmas wishes to Poland. Let us know how it went and whether you and your family enjoyed the dish :)
Love to see this type of recipe. Your family kitchen is cool: a real working kitchen! I've noticed all spice is used a fair bit in Greek cuisine - I love the taste. I did try cooking a rabbit in the UK a few years ago (I'm in Bristol) that was shot wild in North Somerset but didn't work out well at all. The smell after I opened the plastic it was wrapped in was more than just 'rabbit'/gamey smell and I couldn't eat it :-( Are your rabbits in Greece wild caught? Dish looked great.
Cheers

Hi Tony. Glad you enjoyed the video! Allspice, cloves, cumin and cinnamon feature frequently in sauces and meat dishes in Greek cuisine, not just in cakes and cookies :) I think they were originally introduced by the Greek population living in Asia Minor and Constantinople (Istanbul) back in the 1920s (this type of cuisine is called Politiki) and has been popular ever since. Greece doesn't have many rabbits in the wild (definitely not as many as you find in the UK). You mainly find hares in the wild in Greece, whose meat is equally tasty but less than what you get from a rabbit. In Greece rabbits are bred in the same way as sheep, cows, pigs etc are bred (for human consumption) and you can also find breeders than can sell you rabbits to breed at home, if you have enough space outside (just like you do with chickens). Not sure what happened with the rabbit you got, it sounds like the meat went off if it smelt that strange. Normally you would need to skin and gut the rabbit as quickliy as you can after killing it and store it in the fridge or freezer.
@@Greekosophy Interesting cultural/cuisine exchanges between Asia Minor and Greece. There's books written on this, no doubt... I think my rabbit experience was unfortunate. That said, it doesn't put me off eating rabbit (I ate a fair bit in Liguria, Italy several years ago). Anyway, I'm always up for watching your videos! Best wishes to you and your family :-)

hi im hunter greek that is lol in QUBECe You must put the rabbit in Viniger for at least
3 Houer s then you Whont get the wild smell.👍
I'll will try making this recipe this week if my butcher has rabbit...😋😋😋
Ha ha ha. It depends where you live. Here in the UK there are some butchers that can get you rabbit meat if you order in advance. Definitely worth the effort :)
