Even though I *have* to get into work and I looked at LJ 'for just a minute', when I saw this, I realized I *had* to run upstairs, grab chicken legs from the fridge, and one of the big containers of salt that I pour down the toilet to keep roots out of the sewer.
The chicken has gone through the freezing/defrosting process, and is still refrigerated, but why not try? So I did, and.
Nothing.
I gave them every chance. But then, as I walked back, what do I find?
Last night one of the cats actually had found and killed a small frog that had made its way into the house. She's only done that about three times in the seven years we've had this place.
An actual dead frog. Left there *this* morning.
Moving quickly, tried it with the dead frog.
And I realized I was in a "to heck with work" mood. Really. "If God provided me with an actual dead frog *this* morning, then I have to take advantage of it." Detach the legs and skin them, tried the salt.
Well, it didn't work, and I did give it every chance. But I can imagine that there are problems with using legs that weren't harvested in a biology lab, instead provided by a cat.
Anyway, there are reasons why we haven't heard of this in French restaurants, where the legs and salt are in good supply. The legs (chicken and frog) that I was using were possibly not fresh enough.
