Notes for Making Sweet and Tangy Soaked Frog:

Sweet and tangy frog soak offers a delightful combination of crispiness, sweetness, and tanginess, suitable for snacking or pairing with main dishes. Check out how to make it:

Ingredients for Sweet and Tangy Frog Soak:

- Fresh Frog: 1kg (Choose fresh young frogs, seedless, small and uniform in size)

- Salt: 3 tablespoons

- Sugar: 150g

- Fish sauce: 2 tablespoons

- Chili powder: 2 tablespoons

- Horn peppers: 10 pieces

- A medium-sized glass jar suitable for soaking frogs.

Preparing the ingredients for making sweet and sour soaked frogs:

- Peppers: remove stems, wash thoroughly, and slice thinly.

- Fresh frogs:

+ Peel lightly, ensuring to retain the sour taste and distinctive aroma of frogs during soaking. After peeling, soak the frogs in a basin of water mixed with 3 tablespoons of salt. This will clean off the mucus and enhance the subtle savory taste.

+ Remove the frogs, let them drain, then cut them in half to allow them to absorb the seasonings quickly. Alternatively, you can shape the frogs into various forms as desired.

- Clean and dry a glass jar.

Steps to Make Sweet and Tangy Soaked Frog:

Step 1: Boil 300ml water with sugar, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely. Let it cool, then dissolve 2 tablespoons of fish sauce + 2 tablespoons of chili powder + sliced horn peppers (adjust chili according to taste preference).

Step 2: Arrange each piece of frog in a glass jar, pour the sweet and tangy water mixture over the frogs in the jar, then cover tightly and store in a dry place. After about 1 day, it is ready to serve. When eating, skewer each piece of frog on bamboo sticks, serve with salt and chili powder for extra flavor. Alternatively, place a plate of this dish on the dining table, replacing pickled vegetables or sour salads, ensuring that the meal will be unusually finished quickly (!!!)
