Escargot a La Bourguignonne image

The simple and classic method for escargot. :) This is the way they are prepared at 13 Coins in Seattle.

Categories     European

Time 22m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped
2 shallots, minced well
2 garlic cloves, minced well, to taste (I prefer extra garlic)
2 tablespoons brandy
32 canned French snails
32 snail shells

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the butter, parsley, shallots, garlic, and brandy in a bowl and blend well.
  • Place a snail in each shell and fill the cavity with the seasoned butter. (If you do not have shells, you can use escargot baking dishes - this is actually how I prefer to make them. Most of such dishes hold 6 escargot apiece.).
  • Place on a baking pan and bake for twelve minutes.
  • Serve hot, as an appetizer, on individual snail dishes - or on small folded napkins on plates, to keep the shells from sliding about. Also, small silver forks to easily eat them with are a good idea.
  • Make sure to have plenty of good bread alongside, to mop up the delicious butter sauce! :).
  • Also good with a bit of Parmesan sprinkled on top of each.
