Review: Excellent Quality and Taste - Great taste and texture. They are the perfect size to stand up to the shallots and garlic used in a classic recipe. They are packed with a bay leaf and carrot round, that really adds to the overall taste. This will be my go to brand in the future.
Review: Good flavor; Great in a Recipe; Popular at a Party - Relatives and friends raved over these premium escargots, which were presented in a special recipe at a birthday party. The size of the snails seemed small to us, but the flavor was well enjoyed at the party. The appearance of the escargot menu was recognizably Wild Burgundy Snails. We considered the purchase of the escargot well worth our money. The escargots also functioned as a conversation piece at the time. All in all, everyone enjoyed them and we have no complaints about them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice size, great quality
*by S***I on May 3, 2024*

My wife requested snails for a milestone birthday dinner, and these fit the occasion perfectly. I cook frequently but had never prepared them, though I had eaten them several times. I was immediately surprised at how good they smelled in the can, how consistent they were in size, and ultimately how delicious they were - indistinguishable from anything I had eaten in haute cuisine restaurants. If you enjoy snails or even if you're looking to experience them first hand, this is a very high quality way to do so in the comfort of your own home. That said, these are restaurant quality and you will be sacrificing little other than the service. I prepared them two ways explained in Thomas Keller's Bouchon cookbook, though using slightly different equipment. In both, you're essentially just packing the snails in compound butter and heating till bubbling. I used a mini 24 count muffin pan to simultaneously heat both. I'm including the methods below to show that the preparation is simple, fast, and a lot less intimidating than one would think. The compound butter was made with room temperature unsalted butter, chives, parsley, shallots, salted garlic paste. I used a food processor to evenly distribute, but honestly wish I had done it by hand because it would have been easier clean up and just as fast. I used Plugrà butter for its low water content, but you could use something else, make your own ghee, or even use regular unsalted butter - I doubt the water content matters that much. For the natural presentation I bought the 36 pack of extra large shells from Amazon, rinsed and dried a dozen of them making sure to rotate the shells to thoroughly drain. I inserted the snails into these, taking care that they all went in the same direction. They fit really nicely and easily, with enough room to pack in the compound butter (using a teaspoon to pack was really fast, easy, accurate, and way less of a hassle than piping). I wound up tossing the shells but to reuse, they can be rinsed with hot water, simmered in vinegar, rinsed again, and dried at low heat (200F or lower) in the oven. The remaining 12 snails were served with puff pastry rounds that I made slightly in advance to fit over the muffin cups. I placed the remaining snails directly into the mini cups, though if you wanted to do a nicer presentation you could use a purpose made snail dish or even silicone cupcakes liners. I then packed the butter directly on top. The whole pan of 24 went in the oven for about 7 or 8 minutes - until the butter was bubbling. I placed the puff pastry rounds on top of each unshelled snail, returned to the oven for 30 to 60 seconds to reheat the puff pastry, and then served.
