Frog Stew Recipe
Recipe for stewed frog.
Wash and skin the frog quarters, parboil them about three minutes, drain
them. Now put into a stew pan two ounces of butter. When it is melted,
lay in the frogs, and fry about two minutes, stirring them to prevent
burning; shake over them a tablespoonful of sifted flour and stir
it into them; add a sprig of parsley, a pinch of powdered summer
savory, a bay leaf, three slices of onion, salt and pepper, a cup
of hot water and one of cream. Boil gently until done; remove the
legs, strain and mix into the gravy the yolks of two eggs, well
beaten to a cream; put the legs in a suitable dish, pour over the
gravy and serve.
