Ingredients
1 large rabbit (about 3 1/2 lb)
1 salt
1 pepper
1 parsley sprig finely chopped
1 rosemary sprig finely chopped
1/4 lb ham, parma thinly sliced (12 slic, es)
12 sage leaves
6 small sausages, italian
1/2 cup oil, olive
Directions
Bone the rabbit carefully, keeping the pieces of meat as large as
possible. Wipe the rabbit meat with a damp cloth. Cut it into 12
even-sized pieces, flatten them out lightly, and season with salt,
pepper and a little finely chopped parsley and rosemary. Put a slice
of ham on each slice of rabbit and roll up tightly. Take 6 skewers.
Thread a roll of rabbit, 1 sage leaf,
1 sausage, another rabbit roll and another sage leaf on to
each skewer. Brush the skewers with oil and broil (grill), over
charcoal if possible, or on a rack placed as close as possible to the
source of heat. Alternatively, the skewers can also be baked in a
slow oven at 350 degrees for one hour. Turn the skewers
occasionally, each time brushing with oil.
Servings: 6 servings

The History of Recipes
We can read the history of meal recipes far back into history, certainly as far back into recorded history as early Egypt, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, sadly, these early cookbooks were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing meals.
Later on, in Roman times around 25BC a roman called Apicius wrote a number of scripts detailing recipes prepared by his fellow Romans. In his works, he recounts how the meals were split into hors d`oeuvres, main meal and desserts, something we still use today. Aspicius also recounts how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of many herbs, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, fennel and asafoetida. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back a variety of foods and herbs from the holy lands, including basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas created an eruption in books on cookery, most of which are now in academic collections. The introduction of the TV gave us TV cooks and the demand for the accompanying recipe books. Which pretty much brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, permitting everyone to access massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on the site you are now reading. |
