Bucket of Toads
I had a post somewhere along the lines talking about eels. Well toads are another ‘filler’ meat. I say filler because I’m not aware of anyone actually eating the toads for the meat. It’s more just a protein to put into a dish that will mask the taste of the toad meat. An example, yet again, is the ubiquitous ga-prao [กะเพรา], or stir-fried with basil leaves. Just chop them up into tiny pieces, throw it in the skillet, and cook up a tasty meal.
