Emerils New Orleans Style Welsh Rabbit Recipes

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, add the flour and whisk to make a roux. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the ale and boil the mixture for 3 minutes while whisking. Reduce heat to low, add the Cheddar cheese, mustard, Worcestershire, and Tabasco pepper sauce, and cook, stirring, until hot but not boiling.
• Spoon the Cheddar mixture over the toasted muffins, garnish with parsley and serve with crispy bacon.

Steps:

• To make the stock: In a very large stock pot, combine the chicken stock and water with the onions, carrot, celery, leek, ginger, garlic, tarragon, parsley, jalapenos, annatto seeds, juniper berries, peppercorns, and sea salt. If the rabbit kidneys and heart are available, add the heart to the stock and reserve the kidney for later. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat so that the stock is simmering and skim any foam from the top. Simmer for 15 minutes, partially covered, then add the rabbit. Simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the meat is tender. Don't allow the stock to come to a rolling boil, otherwise the rabbit will be tough. The different cuts of meat will take different times to cook, so test for doneness and when each joint is tender, remove it to a plate with tongs. When cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the bones and cut it into large chunks. Discard the bones and set the rabbit meat aside on a plate.
• Strain the stock through a colander, pressing down on the all the vegetables to extract as much flavor as possible. Wash the pan and strain the stock back into it, this time through a strainer
• lined with a double thickness of slightly dampened cheesecloth. If necessary, add water to make the level of stock up to 8 cups.
• In a large heavy casserole, heat the lard over high heat. Add the orzo and cook, stirring constantly, until the pasta is golden, about 4 minutes. Add the paprika and the achiote paste mixture, mashing it well to break it up, and cook for 1 minute more. Reduce the heat to medium low, add the onion and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until softened. Add the garlic and salt and cook for 1 minute more, until the aroma of the garlic is released. If using the kidneys, coarsely chop and add them to the pan, then add the stock and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 15 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally all the way down to the corners of the pan to keep the orzo from sticking. Add the rabbit with all its accumulated juices, and the peas and cook for 5 minutes more. Taste for seasoning and serve, scattered with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat.
• Add the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Slowly whisk in the beer.
• When the bubbles have begun to subside, add the cheeses, 1 handful at a time, stirring constantly and in 1 direction only, until smooth and creamy.
• Add 1 teaspoon of the Essence, the Worcestershire sauce,the dry mustard & crushed red pepper flakes: stir to combine.
• Keep warm while you prepare the oysters.
• In a small skillet or saucepan, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium-low heat and add the oysters.
• Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, or until the oysters are just cooked and have begun to curl around the edges, stirring occasionally.
• Season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of Essence.
• To serve, divide the French bread toast between 6 plates, and divide the cooked oysters among the toasts.
• Top with the cheese mixture, and garnish with the crispy bacon.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Spice Rub Mix: Mix together all ingredients.
• Ribs: Preheat gas grill on low for 1/2 hour. If using charcoal, let the coals burn to embers, also about 1/2 hour after lighting.
• Cut the rib racks in half horizontally along the bone. Season the ribs with a 1/2 of the spice rub mix. In a large roasting pan, add chicken stock, beer, and the bay leaves. Lower the ribs into the liquid. Bring up to a simmer and poach the ribs for 15 minutes.
• Take the ribs out of the liquid and season them with the other 1/2 of the spice rub on both sides. While re-spicing the ribs, bring the liquid up to a boil over low heat to reduce.
• Take the ribs outside to the grill. The coals should be at the ember stage. Gas grills stay on low. Place ribs on the grill and cover to smoke for 2 hours. While ribs are cooking, the sauce can be finished.
• Add the olive oil to a large, preheated saute pan. Add the poblanos and onions, and saute for 5 or 6 minutes, until caramelized. Add the garlic, carrots, and jalapenos and saute another 3 minutes. Add the Roma tomatoes and let it simmer 20 minutes. Add the molasses, honey, and chipotle with adobo sauce. Add the orange, then salt and pepper. When the initial braising liquid has reduced by half, add this to the sauce mixture. Let everything simmer for 20 minutes, or pop in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for 20 minutes.
• Blend sauce mixture in a blender or food processor until smooth. Stir in red wine vinegar and lime juice.
• Bring sauce to grill and brush on ribs for the last half hour of grilling.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• To a large warmed skillet over medium heat, add 1/4 cup of olive oil. Sprinkle the rabbit with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the rabbit to the hot oil and brown on both sides. Remove the rabbit to a medium-size casserole dish.
• In that same skillet, over medium heat, add more olive oil. Add the mushrooms and shallots and saute for about 2 minutes. Transfer the mushroom mixture to the casserole. Sprinkle the flour, thyme, parsley and the bay leaf over the rabbit and stir in the tomato sauce, wine, and the beef broth. You may add a pinch more of salt and pepper if you wish. Cover with foil and put in the oven to bake until the rabbit is tender, stirring every hour, about 2 to 3 hours. Rabbit meat should pull off easily from the bone with a fork. Remove from the oven and serve.
