frog legs (dict)

Frog LegsFrogs' legs are one of the better-known delicacies of French and Chinese cuisine. French The French are known so much for this, that a favourite English nickname for the French is the Frogs. Despite this cliché, frog legs are not a particularly common dish in France. Only the upper joint of the hind leg is served, which has a single bone similar to the upper joint of a chicken or turkey wing. They are commonly prepared by frying or deep-frying, sometimes crumbed and sometimes uncrumbed. The flavour and texture is partway between chicken and lobster. Chinese In Chinese cuisine, they are more affectionately called 田鸡 (pinyin: tiánjī) or literally field chicken. They are usually stir fried and mixed with other light spices, and eaten off the bone.
