In a medium sized saucepan (that I don't want to be using for food preparation ever again) I bought water with a few squeezes of dishwashing liquid to the boil and plopped what was left of my toad in.
I found it near impossible to remove the skin and meat from the feet and toes, so I figured the boiling would make it a case of "meat falling off the bone".

Drowning in the bath is a common fear, not just for the drunk. Also,
the smell of boiling toad is somewhere between dog food and muddy wet socks

This was not the case. I boiled the bones for about 45mins and nothing much changed. In fact, I actually think the skin got tougher.
Dog food and wet socks eh? That doesn't sound nearly as bad as I would have imagined...
ReplyDeleteNo soup for me? Just as well I suppose.
