Details

Whip up a gourmet appetizer fit for any bistro with these snails! Sometimes known as escargots, these wild-caught snails are selected for their exceptionally large size and processed using European technology for superior texture and flavor. They're packed fresh and never frozen, ensuring you can serve your guests tender, plump snails with a deliciously mild flavor! Serve these whole snails on a traditional indented escargot platter with snail tongs and a small fork, or add a bit of rustic charm to your service by offering them in a small cast iron casserole dish with toothpicks.

Though snails are often associated with French cuisine, they've been enjoyed all over the world since ancient times! They're packed with protein but low in fat, making them a satisfying addition to your menu. The concept of eating snails may be off-putting for the faint of heart, but don't worry - these snails have a tender texture and mild flavor that's comparable to mussels and other shellfish, making them a delicious treat for your adventurous patrons! For a classic preparation, bake or saute the snails in a compound butter prepared with garlic and parsley until they are cooked through. Serve them piping hot with an extra drizzle of herb butter and a few hunks of crusty bread to sop up their delicious sauce! Try experimenting with other herbs and preparations to create an escargots appetizer that's unique to your establishment.
