Lapin à la Moutarde
Rabbit in Mustard Sauce
Rabbit is popular in France, especially in traditional country dishes. Genuine Dijon mustard is the secret of this dish. The rabbit is rubbed and coated with the mustard few hours before cooking.
Lapin à la Moutarde and Wine
This dish is best served with a white Chardonnay wine from the Côte de Beaune, whether it is the regional sub-appellation, or a specific village such as a Pernand-Vergelesses or a Chassagne-Montrachet for special occasions.
