About Vital wheat gluten
Raw frog legs are a mild, lean white meat that sits somewhere between chicken thigh and firm white fish in terms of flavor and texture. The fat content is extremely low, protein is high, and there are essentially no carbs. They are particularly popular in French and Southeast Asian cooking, typically pan-fried with butter and garlic, or coated lightly and deep-fried. The skinless muscle is delicate enough to overcook quickly, so high heat and brief cooking times serve the texture best.
