Rabbit meat is bland
But like chicken if you add a few mushrooms to the gravy, it does improve it a lot. Wild rabbits do have more flavour than farmed ones. Many years ago a friend of ours brought us some rabbits from a shoot that he had been on. I have never tasted (or even seen ) wild rabbits quite like these. Lord knows what they had been eating but they were huge, almost like hares, and when you skinned them they had a layer of fat under the skin and also some fat around the kidneys, just like a pig.
