Snails | Gathering and Cooking the French Delicacy

Snails - also called escargots - are a typical French dish. Usually, this delicacy is served as a starter.
Escargots are a protected species. In neighbouring Germany, it is illegal to collect them, though in France they can be gathered from the start of July.

I just had these and I can honestly they are really good. It’s kinda chewy (in a good way) like a tender mussel or oyster, and most of the flavor comes from the buttery garlic and parsley. Expensive tho.

These are delicious. We eat these in Vietnam and Laos too. If you know how to make stew with these it is amazing. Dill, garlic, shallots, two or three bay leaves, one or two tablespoons of fish sauce (3 crabs brand) and Vietnamese curry. Add water and let it stew. Enjoy. 🎉 Interestingly we eat the cousin of the land snails, sea snails. Edit: Forgot to mention lemongrass Keep things simple, cook all the herbs until it's golden brown, put the curry powder in once you see it browning and then add the snails, stir it and then add water. Let it stew.

Scoop them out, fill the shell with butter, shove the flesh back in and roast it in the oven for another ten minutes." Fuck. That. I'll just have an apple.

Is this a normal dish for French people or just a dying old generation food?

@blue_003b6f 2 жыл бұрын

A dying old generation food. I don't know anyone who eats those regularily. And it's really understandable, snails don't have any appeal: the garlic butter is there for the sole purpose of giving them taste. It's just dull if you eat them as is. There are lots of french meat meals that are more affordable and tastier. Same goes for frogs. It's just a cliché. Some food stereotypes are true, though. We do eat loads of bread (mainly baguette, but not only, we have hundreds of types of bread) and cheese.
