How to make frog eye salad:

Acini de pepe is found in pasta department of most food stores.

Boil acini de pepe in 3 quarts water to which 1 teaspoon salt has been added, until done. Do not overcook; drain and set aside. Mix sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and flour. Gradually add eggs and pineapple juice. Cook over medium heat until thickened. Add lemon juice; cool. Then combine this mixture with the acini de pepe. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Next day, add marshmallows, coconut, oranges, Cool Whip and all the pineapple. Mix thoroughly. Serve with spoon from bowl or long tray.
