Frogs' Legs Deviled

Cuisses de Grenouilles a la Diable.

Have one pound of well-pared frogs' legs; season them with salt, pepper, nutmeg, lemon juice and mustard, and immerse them in melted butter, then roll them in bread-crumbs, and range them on a double broiler; besprinkle with butter, and broil over a slow fire, then dress them on a deviled sauce (No. 459).
