When I was a kid my grandmother used to fix frog legs this way and I still fix them like this now. Nothing fancy, just simple old fashion cooking.

Excellent frog legs. I used fat free buttermilk and added 1 Tablespoon of Old Bay to the flour. They were so easy to prepare and better than any other recipe. This one goes in the permanent keeper file. Thanks for sharing.

    My son and I just tried frogs legs for the first time. I added garlic powder to this simple recipe and they tasted great. Taste, prep time and simplicity make this worth five stars.

    These were real good for a basic recipe. I found them a little bland and I added more pepper to them after cooking. It greatly enhanced the flavor. The next time I make them, I will add some garlic when cooking or some garlic powder in with the flour.

    I had these, prepared by the chef himself. It was the first time I have ever had frog legs. I seriously doubt it will be my last. They were excellent. The meat was succulent flavorful. The taste was different, but that's not unexpected. I look forward to having them again. Thank you.
