Pillivuyt Six Serving Classic Escargot Plate and Baker, White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you're a fan of classic escargot you'll love these dishes for heating up and serving the little delicacies (much easier & more sanitary than re-using shells). Here's my standard recipe: Rinse 12 large snails (Wild Burgundy are the best) Gourmet Escargot - Wild Burgundy Snails by Chefshop.com under cold running water then rinse twice more in a weak solution of vinegar and water. Drain and set aside. In a small saucepan, reduce the 1/2 cup of white wine, 2 tablespoons minced shallots, and 2 cloves minced garlic to a thick syrup. Gradually, add 3 tablespoons butter, stirring constantly to form an emulsification. Add the snails and cook gently for about 3 minutes. Divide the snails between 2 escargot dishes along with all of the cooking sauce, top with a bit of freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano and bake in a pre-heated 350 (F) degree oven for a few minutes until bubbly. Serve immediately with plenty of French bread. Voilà!
