Week 8-Animal=Frog
Frog Legs. This was a first for all three of us. One of us didn't even attempt to eat it (I won't fault him because he is only 2 and a half) and he did raise it triumphantly over his head when prompted. Finally, he did come to believe that it was indeed frog he was served. Quote of the night, "We don't eat froggies". Oh grasshopper, it will be a long year for you.
The other one failed the two bite rule. Her claim was that you could tell that it was a frog and could really and truly see the frog's posterior end. Claiming nausea, she threw in the towel (or frog) after one bite.
I, on the other hand, found the frog to be very tender, very lean, very good, and nothing like chicken. That could have been attributed to the marinade, an Asian garlic soy marinade. I will be trying frog again (solo....as the other two members of this quest look on with disturbed expressions).
Frog legs were marinated in Soy Vay Hoisin Garlic Marinade for 24 hours.
Grilled over direct heat for 3 minutes a side.
I have never seen the legs attached when served.
