How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Frogs
- Prioritize selecting live frogs rather than frozen ones, as this ensures the frog meat remains fresh and nutritious.
- Choose frogs that are large with evenly proportioned body parts, and have brownish-yellow skin; these are fresh and delicious frogs.
- Avoid purchasing frogs that move slowly or are less agile, as these are often farmed frogs, which when cooked will not have the firmness and quality of wild frogs.
