Roll serving pieces in flour or shake in paper bag and saute in fat or
lard in skillet or electric skillet, turning often, until browned (about 15
minutes on medium heat).

Add remaining ingredients, save the mushrooms and butter, cover, and
simmer for 1-1-1/2 hours.

After an hour saute the mushrooms in the butter for 5 minutes, then add
them to the skillet.

Timing instructions cannot be exact, so you must test the biggest pieces
of hare from time to time.

If sauce thickens too much, add more white wine; if after, say, 1-1/2
hours it is not thick enough, make a paste of one tablespoon flour and
liquid and stir into sauce. _The L.L. Bean Game & Fish Cookbook_. Angus
