There were plenty of these tasty amphibious, once.Today, because of the water pollution and for the use of the chemicals, they almost have been desappearing. The frogs for sale now, are indeed imported, otherwise they are frozen. Frogs huntsmen usually carried a little lamp with them once, so that the frogs dazzled by the light, stopped to croak and got an easy prey to be picked up and run through. Their characteristic and unpleasant sound says why, referring to a person who sings out of tune, one usually states "you're as out of tune as a frog". Peel the frogs (inside and outside), wash and strain them. Pass them in the flour first, then in some salted shaken egg,and fry them in aboundant olive oil. Serve them hot.
