For the last few freezer camp days I have soaked my rabbits in a low salt solution. I think I had read on here that it helps leach out the blood that is left even after bleeding. Usually I allow them to soak in a changed salt bath for a couple of days and then cut them up and package them for the freezer.
What is the best way? Does soaking change the meat?I have not noticed but I don't have anything to compare since I have done it the same every time. This is not counting the first time I butchered and cooked the same night and it was tough.
I love the way the rabbit tastes now but I am worried about the salt. I don't use too much but enough to discourage growth of bacteria.
