Snails in Marinara Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • PREPARATION:
  • Chop the garlic finely and heat it in the olive oil with the chili pepper.
  • Don't inhale over the saute pan with the red pepper flakes.
  • Add the 1/4 cup of white vermouth.
  • Add the diced tomatoes, you may peel them or not, according to your taste.
  • Add the diced roasted red pepper.
  • Cook on high heat for about 10 minutes
  • Halfway through the cooking time, add the snails to heat through..
  • Add the sugar (if needed) and a pinch of salt.
  • Serve immediately in a shallow soup plate with the parsley on top.
  • Finish with shavings of Reggiano Parmigiano cheese.
  • The pinch of sugar serves to counter the tartness of the tomatoes, and can be omitted if the tomatoes aren't tart (i.e. if they're really sweet sun-ripened).
  • I had this with lots of crusty Italian bread to sop up the spicy aromatic sauce.
  • Alternately, I suppose you could serve these little morsels over a bed of pasta, spaghetti, or linguine noodle, cooked al dente and added to the saute pan to finish cooking in the sauce.

    Your recipe looks absolutely wonderful and I give it a "5"!!! Unfortunately, on one particular occasion, I was looking down at the antenna of the escargot that I was about to put in my open mouth. Needless to say, I couldn't get beyond that and have never eaten escargot since. That doesn't stop me from giving you a "5" fork rating though because the recipe looks delicious!!!
