Lidia Celebrates America

A Taste of Appalachia: Rabbit Food Reimagined

In Middletown, VA, chef Kari Rushing is on a mission to change America’s perception of Appalachian cuisine. Her restaurant, Vault & Cellar, marries the resourcefulness of Appalachia – making do with what you have - with the refinement of fine dining. In the special, Lidia helps Kari prepare cabbage steak and “rabbit food,” incorporating rabbit, braised greens and roasted carrots.
