    Sautéed frog legs -- but, it's a matter of opinion, really.
  • Question
    Since live frogs carry salmonella, could I get salmonella poisoning from eating undercooked frog legs?
    Community Answer
    Yes, that is a possibility. You should not eat frog legs if you believe they might be undercooked.
  • Question
    How do you get the stringy taste out of them? I heard soaking in salt water for 24 hours helps. Is that right?
    Community Answer
    Soaking them in salt water will only make it worse. I suggest setting the frog legs in boiled water for 2 hours (or overnight). Let the water and legs cool, then pour the water out and boil the legs again, except this time put them in with garlic and butter for a lighter taste.

    No, it could be the natural color of that frog or it is maybe just a bit overcooked.
