For those who follow the vibrant food culture online cannot have failed to have run across the wonderful Bron Marshall writing down in New Zealand. She has just announced a fun little ‘theme’ for the myriad bloggers out there – Wild Food – Reptiles. Basically a recipe is required for some form of reptilian dish – Crocodile perhaps or snake. Maybe a chocolate Crocodile!

Frogs Legs sprang to mind. Having never tried them I have no idea, in fact, on how to cook them or where to buy them from!

A search online revealed two ‘specialist meat dealers’ – Dunstan Game and Osgrow Online. Both stock Frogs Legs. A 1 kg bag, I assume frozen, retails for £14.57 as Osgrow and £15.75 at Dunstan.

A 1 kg bag holds approximately 24 legs – more than I require and more than I really wanted to spend. Another plan for Bron’s event is required.
