FROGS, LEGS.

THE legs should be rinsed and
wiped dry with soft, clean CLOTH
Epicures usually agree that the
0est way to cook frogs legs is to fry
them In deep fat. To go about this the
legs should first be left in boiling water,
to which has been added little salt
and lemon Juice for three or four mil
utes. They should then be drained on .
cloth or piece ct porour paper and then
dipped In fritter batter nd fried quick.
" in deep fat Some persons prefer "a
have the frogs legs simply dipped In
milk or milk and egg before frying, but
the fritter batter gives them more crisp.
ness and makes them look little more
tempting.
The Creole Way, Here is the Creole
way Of cooking frogs legs. Place .
dozen legs in an earthen dish with q
sprinkling of lemon juice and allow
them to remain there covered for two
hours. Now place two ounces of butter
In q saucepan with a little onion df the
favor Is uked) and bit Of minced
green pepper and cook gently for fvs
minutes. Add the legs, cover the dish
and allow them to cook for few min.
ates. Now add follr sliced ripe tolna
toes and half cupful of mushrooms
Place cover on the saucepan and al.
Wv this to cook till the legs are tender.
For Invalids. Although frogs legs
are counted among the most delectable
Of flesh foods, they are unlike many
dainttes, very wholesome and may b.
served to invallds and convelescents
With impuity. The best way to pre-
pare them for the sick room would be
to parboil them and then dip them In
milk and eggs and fry them In deep
fat. Fried foods are not usually the
most wholesome, but by this method
there is no hard crust on the surface,
