Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cleaning the Escargot

    Rinse the escargot under cold water to remove any debris. Soak them in salted water for about 30 minutes to purge any remaining impurities.

  2. 2

    Making Garlic Butter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, finely chopped shallots, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully incorporated.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preparing the Snails

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F). Place the cleaned escargot in their shells, if available, or in a small baking dish.

  2. 4

    Adding the Garlic Butter and Wine

    Spoon the garlic butter mixture generously into each escargot shell, ensuring they are well-filled. Drizzle white wine over the snails.

  3. 5

    Baking

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the butter is bubbling and the tops are slightly golden.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serving the Dish

    Remove the escargot from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve hot with crusty bread for dipping in the garlic butter and garnish with lemon wedges.
