Really makes me wonder whether I should give frog legs another try. I’ve had them at fancy French places and at southern joints, and they’ve always been kinda meh - taste like chicken, basically, or else taste like what’s get fantastically butter-based sauce they’re swimming in.
Maybe I need to try cooking them for myself to really get a feel for the unique flavor. I wonder if there’s a place to get them fresh here in town?
"You got them frog legs?"
"No, that's just the way I walk."
Depends on where you live, of course. TFA says fancy French restaurants, and I'll just have to take their word on it. A lot of places south, and some Midwest, and you'll still have to look around. But experience says, yeah, quality varies from "smother it in garlic butter" to "just a light seasoning is all it needs". No recommendations, as I'm on the West Coast now, went vegetarian and haven't seen any on the menu out here regardless.
