France is arguably the country we most relate to fine dining, thanks to decades of Cordon Bleu cooking, Michelin stars, Alain Ducasse seemingly endless culinary imagination and of course, an endless variety of fine ingredients that have blessed the country. One of them is indisputably the escargot, wild snails that the French have eaten for centuries and savored in different preparations. Prepared in traditional, classic fashion and recipes, escargot can be transformative – sautéed in butter with garlic, shallots and just a touch of parsley, they are divine. Prepared in puff pastry they are sublime. Typically, escargots are presented stuffed back in their own shells – which are first sterilized – or in an escargotiere, a ceramic escargot dish that nestles each snail or shell in its proper spot, to be fished out with a particular two-pronged fork.
