RABBIT MOLE
It is during the coldest months that soft and fuzzy animals suddenly seem fair game. Deer becomes venison, and then becomes dinner. Rabbit is served as lapin à la moutarde, or pappardelle et coniglio, or conejo en mole -- more elegant phrasing perhaps, but rabbit stew all the same. Traditional rabbit stews are usually rather painstaking. A perfect Mexican mole sauce, I was told by an octogenarian cook in Oaxaca, the world capital of mole sauce, is a full day's work -- pounding, crushing, roasting, mixing and simmering. In any culture, the work is worth the delicious final product.

Steps:
- In a large heavy casserole, warm the bacon fat. Add the rabbit pieces and brown well. Add the onion, garlic and seasonings. Cook until the onion is soft, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth. Turn heat to low. Simmer for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, to make the mole sauce, drain the chilies, reserving 1 tablespoon of the soaking liquid. Stem and seed the chilies. Place the chilies, tomatoes, sesame seeds, oregano, cloves, allspice, cinnamon and garlic in a blender and puree until very smooth. Add the reserved liquid, banana, bread crumbs, chocolate and salt. Process until smooth, stopping to scrape sides of bowl.
- Remove the rabbit pieces from the broth. Whisk in the mole sauce. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Return rabbit to pan. Simmer until thick, about 15 minutes. Serve with white rice or warm flour tortilla.

- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the rabbit and return to a boil. Skim off any foam that forms, then drop the heat to a simmer. Add one of the quartered onions, the epazote, hoja santa and half the oregano. Peel half the garlic cloves and smash them with the flat of a knife. Add them to the pot, then salt to taste. Let this simmer.
- Get a comal or cast iron frying pan or similar pan hot. Toast the dried chiles until they begin to blister a little, turning often. Don't let them burn. Move them to a blender with the allspice and grated chocolate.
- When you are done toasting the chiles, put the other quartered onion on it to char, along with the remaining unpeeled garlic cloves and the tomatoes, cut side down. When you get some good blackening, peel the garlic and move all the vegetables to the blender, roughly chopping them if need be.
- Add some of the broth you're cooking the rabbit in to the blender and puree. If you want, strain the puree through a fine meshed strainer to remove any stray bits of chile skin and seeds, which are undigestible. To finish the sauce, heat the lard in a pot over medium-high heat and pour in the sauce. Stir vigorously to incorporate the oil, and bring to a gentle simmer. Let this cook slowly while the rabbit cooks.
