Hunting (part 6)

This is were you take the Heart and Lungs from which is towards the front legs. So wash the rabbit and in the cavity between the rear legs with your little finger, push through the tube and reproductive organs and discard and wash out.
The rabbit should look like this (the one above) and is now ready to prepare (joint) and poach.
So this is the rabbit jointed. The back legs cut through, the front legs removed and the saddle (back) trimmed of fat and sinew.
I always keep the roasted carcase of a chicken for flavour and put it in the bottom of a heavy pan and place the jointed rabbit on top.

Roughly chop an onion, two carrots, 1 bulb of garlic (with skin) and 5 bay leaves and put on the top of the rabbit and fill half full with cold water.
