Frog Legs
Milk
1/2c Flour
2tsp Herbes de Provence
Vegetable Oil, for frying
Anyone who says frog legs taste like chicken is a fucking idiot. They taste absolutely nothing like chicken. Their consistencies are somewhat similar but frog's flavor is much closer to fish. So I guess I can understand how the common pleb's feeble brain could get confused. Don't feel too bad. You can't help it.
Soak the frog legs in milk for at least two hours. Mix the flour and the herbes de provence in a shallow bowl. Pat the frog legs dry and dredge them. Set them on a plate for a few minutes and dredge them again. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. This is how you get a nice solid coat. Put a shitload of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once it heats up toss in your legs until browned, about five minutes per side. I didn't do it here but the Frenchies flash saute some garlic and parsley in butter, spoon it over the fried legs, and serve with a lemon wheel.
It is unfortunate so many people in America turn their nose up at eating frog legs. They are delicious, nutritious, and seditious. Well, the latter doesn't make any sense but that was the only other word I could think of that rhymed. Eat it.

Had my first Frog Legs in Portland at a Cajun restaurant. I think it was on Killingsworth, or somewhere around there. Really good!
Picture makes me think of basic instinct.
Actually, m'dear, I don't even HAVE a rhyming dictionary, or even a thesaurus! I'm simply a language geek...

Dammit Jimmy!
You were at EaT:an oyster bar on Williams (near Killing[i]sworth[it]). They are fantastic but a lot of people disagree with me.
Never saw it,
yeah, me neither..
Who's that snooty looking prick in your photo? He looks like a Frenchie with a fattened duck liver shoved up his ass. Do they think they're so smart BECAUSE they frogs and snails, or do they think they eat frogs and snails BECAUSE they're so smart?
