Bill’s Bucatini with Rabbit and Spring Vegetables

Here at Via Umbria, we really live and breathe our products, as we believe in the producers and farmers that make them. This means that our everyday choices are guided by the integrity of the products we sell; we really are rooted and knowledgeable about what we are selling and use and eat those products every day.

Last week, our very own Bill Menard whipped up some bucatini with rabbit, and sautéed spring peas, fava beans, and artichokes with mint. Made wearing the top line of chefware from Italy (quite stylish if we do say so ourselves) and plated on a Geribi handpainted ceramic, this meal is a seasonal Umbrian classic that he made with pride.

The Bucantini with rabbit recipe you can find the The Geometry of Pasta, but for the rest you’ll have to consult our Pinterest.

Buon appetito!
