Have you ever eaten snails? No? As you can believe me, it's not for everyone. I UNDERSTAND, many people struggle to eat it. First time I ate it, it was made in shells à la bourguignonne, with garlic and parsley. It is very nourishing meal, you feel full after 6 snails for sure. Moreover, heliciculture, the process of raising snails for human consumption, is well-known not only in France but in England as well. The typical question is, what's the taste of the snail? | From my point of view, it's like having a rubber in the mouth. the most tasty thing is the garlic-butter sauce which is filled inside the snail. Frenchs also use special cutlery for this type of meal. |
Snail is kind of sticky so with the special tweezers, you can hold it and with the help of a small fork - put the snail out. So, are you hungry? If you'd like to try it, Paris offers several restaurants where it's served. Good luck and bon appetit!
