Burgundian snails - plump snails baked in their shells swimming in garlicky, herbed butter. The epitome of French indulgence.
🧂 Інгредієнти
- 24 Snails(canned, large escargots, drained and rinsed. If using pre-shelled snails, you will need escargot shells, cleaned.)
- 200 g Unsalted butter(softened to room temperature)
- 6 cloves Garlic(finely minced or pressed through a garlic press)
- 0.5 cup Fresh parsley(finely chopped (about 1 bunch))
- 1 Shallot(very finely minced (about 2 tablespoons))
- 2 tbsp Pastis or Pernod(anise-flavored liqueur)
- 0.5 tsp Salt(or to taste)
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper(freshly ground, or to taste)
- Crusty bread(baguette or similar, for serving)
👨🍳 Інструкції
- 1
Prepare the compound butter: In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, minced shallot, Pastis (or Pernod), salt, and pepper. Mash and mix thoroughly with a fork or spatula until all ingredients are evenly incorporated and the mixture forms a cohesive paste. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 2
Prepare the snails: If using canned snails with shells, drain them well and rinse under cold water. Gently pat them dry with paper towels. Carefully insert one drained snail into each clean escargot shell, ensuring the wider end of the shell is facing up to hold the butter.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
Fill the shells: Using a small spoon or a piping bag fitted with a large tip, generously fill the opening of each shell containing a snail with the compound butter. Mound the butter slightly on top, ensuring the snail is completely covered and the shell is packed full.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 4
Bake the escargots: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Arrange the filled escargot shells on a baking sheet or in a specialized escargot dish. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the butter is melted, bubbling vigorously, and just beginning to turn golden brown around the edges. The aroma should be intensely garlicky and herbaceous.
⏱️ 12-15 minutes - 5
Serve immediately: Carefully remove the escargots from the oven. They will be very hot. Serve immediately with plenty of crusty bread for dipping into the delicious garlic butter.
