There are various spellings. Some like one lumpen, others like two.

Russians hold it in their teeth and drink their tea through it.

I think that emraphoto is pointing out that it should be "lumpenproletariat" not "lumpen proletariat."

It is indeed Maltese: how did you know? Very few would spot that. I lived there for 4 years as a boy (52-54 and 58-60); my brother was born there and has dual Maltese/British citizenship.

It's not really very exotic. Joint a rabbit and marinade in red wine with chopped shallots, garlic, capers and tarragon for 1-5 days. Strain off (and keep) the marinade. Fry the rabbit in olive oil; set aside. Chop some more shallot and garlic, and some onion and celery; fry these together with the marinade vegetables. Add some tomato puree and the marinade. Cook with the rabbit until done: about 1/2 hour.

Responses to others: well, there's Wiki for you, and yes, I prefer Laphroaig to Grant's but can't afford to drink it every day, at least not in quantity.

Cheers,

Roger

Thanks for the rabbit recipe. Sounds tasty, but you probably shouldn't eat it while watching Fatal Attraction. I'll try it the next time I get a wild hare. It sounds even better than that other famous dish, the Maltese Falcon.
 
SO are most of my Mississippi relatives. As a basic start; clean them very well, rinse and repeat.
Hog maws--the other end--are my preference but I now live in the wrong part of the country and my granddad didn't teach me his recipe:(
I do use my grandma's cast iron skillet for making her cornbread. Another recipe not written down but she had time to teach me.
Turkey fries were a big hit with the yankee part of my family--'til we learned what they are. I still like 'em though. Lot easier to deal with than mountain oysters.

Chittlins and cornbread. Anybody got a good recipe? Still looking.

cooking that valuable little statue would have hid it from Bogie or Sidney Greenstreet and that affected Joel Cairo.
 
I'm happy to try anything food wise as long as someone else is eating it too!
The various eyeballs (couple of different fish, lamb, sheep, and goat) weren't so much fun to eat but I am glad I tried 'em.

yes it was dark coloured in that film before it was cooked.
it was sooted to hide its golden sheen, but no one was fooled.
great story, great film, one of the first film noir.

Maybe not my favorite Bogart film but damned good.
Haven't watched it in a while, though, and I seem to recall that the falcon in the movie was the surviving half of a pair?
