Final Product
The dish of stir-fried sea snails with butter and garlic has an incredibly attractive aroma; just the smell alone makes you crave it.
The snail meat is sweet, chewy, and crispy, seasoned just right. You can enjoy this snail dish with a dipping sauce made of fish sauce and lemongrass, which will make the dish even more delicious.
How to choose fresh and delicious sea snails
- You should choose snails that are still alive, with their bodies tightly attached to the shell, and the snail meat should still have a certain level of moisture. When touched, they will retract into their shells.
- Check the snails near the outer part of the shell; if you touch them, they will reflexively close up.
- Do not buy snails with soft and mushy bodies and shells that are deeply retracted, as they are likely dead.
Tips for cleaning fresh snails without the fishy smell
Method 1: To let the snails expel all dirt, you should soak the fresh snails in water mixed with diluted lemon and salt for about 1 – 2 hours.
Method 2: Put the snails in a basin of water with a little sliced chili; the spiciness of the chili can make the snails release all the dirt and sand. This can be the simplest and most effective method. Do not use vinegar to clean the snails, as the smell of vinegar is quite strong and may affect the flavor of the dish.
