Frog Leg Dinner Review - cjs - 02-05-2015 Well piddle, no leftover frog legs for pizza!! What a wonderful dinner we had. I combined 3 or 4 ideas for the frog and it all worked wonderfully. Marinated the legs overnight in Buttermilk Rinsed and patted dry; seasoned with s&p and placed in a shallow dish and a drizzle of Worcestershire sauce (1 tsp.) plus juice of 1 lemon for 4 minutes. I have some catfish seasoned flour from a local restaurant mixed with a.p. flour, and good sh*t, cayenne. Fried in clarified butter for couple min. per side. My friend, Chef Dave Nelson, suggested an herbed mayo that I doctored a little and boy, was it tasty. 1/2 cup mayo 1 tsp. minced shallots 1 T. thinly sliced gr. onions 1/2 T. lemon juice 1 tsp. roughly chopped capers 1/2 tsp. basil paste S&P to taste Served with rice and peas and roasted asparagus with Balsamic vinegar, good sh*t and olive oil. The flavor just all came together with every bite!! Re: Frog Leg Dinner Review - foodfiend - 02-05-2015 Well, I'm going out to my pond right now, chipping a hole in the ice, and calling down to our hibernating frogs that we love them and aren't planning on making frog legs ever! ribit. Re: Frog Leg Dinner Review - cjs - 02-05-2015 You're no fun........ Re: Frog Leg Dinner Review - Trixxee - 02-05-2015 I would try them! The mayo sounds very good - I like that idea of adding basil paste. Re: Frog Leg Dinner Review - Gourmet_Mom - 02-06-2015 We love frog legs, and those look delicious! In our early days of dating, William took me frog gigging...done at night with a spotlight. We took them to the house, and he and my dad cleaned them and fried them up. They were awesome! Re: Frog Leg Dinner Review - cjs - 02-06-2015 We used to do that when we lived on the Russian River with our trusty 'Herc' (yellow lab) sitting Geo. Washington-style in the bow of the boat and it's a wonder those drunken louts didn't scare every frog out of the area!!!!! I kept watch from the dock laying in my sleeping bag reading a book by lantern and drinking Kaluha - everybody happy! Re: Frog Leg Dinner Review - Gourmet_Mom - 02-06-2015 Funny picture! LOL! We hunted the ditch banks and canals around the lake in a truck...much more comfortable! LOL! Re: Frog Leg Dinner Review - cjs - 02-06-2015 More comfortable than me? I don't think so...... Re: Frog Leg Dinner Review - Gourmet_Mom - 02-06-2015 No, the drunks in the boat! LOL! |
