About Huesenziwwi
Huesenziwwi is Luxembourgish jugged hare, associated with the autumn and winter game season. The embassy rendition combines hare and bacon in a substantial red-wine sauce with onions, garlic and aromatic vegetables.
Juniper, thyme, bay and cloves give the sauce its woodland fragrance, while pepper brings a more pronounced warmth. Mushrooms and sour cream are optional additions, and crisp croutons accompany the meat.
The stew has a dark, richly flavoured sauce around tender pieces of hare. Suggested accompaniments include spaetzle, red cabbage and baked pear halves with cranberries, creating a generous game-season plate.
