Snails | Gathering and Cooking the French Delicacy

- Snails - also called escargots - are a typical French dish. Usually, this delicacy is served as a starter.
Escargots are a protected species. In neighbouring Germany, it is illegal to collect them, though in France they can be gathered from the start of July.

RIP Turbo and his family
This is not turbo hes to fast he would've ran
Not so fast
🤣
Wkwk
Pahahahahahahaha
I just had these and I can honestly they are really good. It’s kinda chewy (in a good way) like a tender mussel or oyster, and most of the flavor comes from the buttery garlic and parsley. Expensive tho.
Yeah, I have huge texture issues but the escargot were actually really good!
I love raw oysters but for some reason snails turn my stomach. Funny how I can eat one disgusting thing but not another just because of my cultural upbringing.
wrrr
Just for butter and parsley? Lol I’m good low key
eat my snails please papa
In Indonesia we also eat similar food.....
Conch has a taste texture that is similar to shellfish but there is a little chicken taste. In Indonesia, we used to use rice field golden snails!.....
I feel proud if this food is expensive food in France! 😅
Ate them when I went to France. They are delicious.
What u call "delicious" is the garlic butter lol. These taste nothing
@@benireges exactly lol Garlic has one of the best flavours and paired with butter it can make a rock taste good
Same, had some in Paris, just tasted like garlic
I'm Mexican American and I would never imagine that French people would eat this . Bizarre Bazaar
I’m English and it’s weird to us but they are actually nice, I tried it in a restaurant in Paris and it just tastes of garlic
@dylanmurphy9389 I guess it doesn't look to bad. I just hate slimy stuff to Chew on .but I would E octopus legs .
Portuguese here, we just straight up cook them, I love it.
I'll admit, it does look very appetizing.
Delicious french food! I'm hungry🙋
Love snails! I grew up with it. Yummy!
Why is my mouth watering?!
They look good. I wouldn't mind trying them.
La'Tasha W. They’re quite good! Enjoying escargot doesn’t make you filthy, pay no attention to uneducated trolls.
Yes, and the snails too!
I guess everything is good for as long as it is neatly done, except for humans of course. In fact, we are animals after all and are at the top of the food chain
They don’t really taste of anything, you only taste the garlic they add. I tried some in Paris
Being French myself that sounds delicious!
How can something that tastes nothing be delicious
@@benireges BECAUSE IT IS DELICIOUS
@@thezeromortalplan8870 the butter garlic and parsley is whats delicious. The snails have no taste
@@beniregesthe snails are there for protein, we aren’t going to eat garlic on its own
Pressure cook them vs waiting a week. Flavor will also be more infused as well this way cutting time in half.
This is how we do and same for Welks (sea snails)
i love french culture but i would never eat these XD
Its very tasty .
Well, if you frame it that way, it looks delicious.
Burgundy countryside is so beautiful and charming.
Looks delicious!
These are delicious. We eat these in Vietnam and Laos too. If you know how to make stew with these it is amazing. Dill, garlic, shallots, two or three bay leaves, one or two tablespoons of fish sauce (3 crabs brand) and Vietnamese curry. Add water and let it stew. Enjoy. 🎉
Interestingly we eat the cousin of the land snails, sea snails.
Edit:
Forgot to mention lemongrass
Keep things simple, cook all the herbs until it's golden brown, put the curry powder in once you see it browning and then add the snails, stir it and then add water. Let it stew.
Well I guess it’s no different than eating mussels or clams
or geoducks
All are molluscs so yeah, I guess it isn't that different lol
Lets be straight about this; who the fuck saw some snails and thought;
"You know what? I'm gonna cook and eat those. But first I'll boil the shit out of it for an hour and a half! Scoop them out, fill the shell with butter, shove the flesh back in and roast it in the oven for another ten minutes."
Fuck. That. I'll just have an apple.
What if it was because survival? Maybe a person needed to eat and that was he found, he discovered he like it and then in the future began to mix it with other things
Yea it’s a little strange lol but back then when they didn’t have enough protein and meats. They’d discover snails. Lol
Poverty and/or desperation. Someone may have observed another animal eat them, and then when that person was hungry and in need of something to eat, they decided to try it because they were abundant.
@@Benzy670 and spent all that time preparing them?
You sure about that?
Also, 3 years have past since i posted this question!
@@Steggmanpreparing things to taste nice that don’t naturally taste good is another example of survival though
When I was a kid I had these they tasted good
I have never tried snails before, it must look delicious.
they taste like mushrooms, I tried them when I went to morocco. You can probably make mushrooms using the same recipe and it'll taste similar
@@thetree9399 they taste more like calamari than mushrooms. A bit if a mix.
thetree666 The I ate It taste like clam
All I could taste was garlic when I tried them in Paris, the snails are quite tasteless
Franchement c’est grave bon
I love the sound of French.
Also muriel and griseo love that dish.
Awesome!!
i enjoy them.... so tasty!
Not gonna lie, that looks pretty tasty and nutty.
I love burgundy snails
I'd need 200 of them at least, they are bloody divine!😆🤣😆
Yummy thank you Sir 🙏♥️
The herb butter is about the only thing that looks edible to me haha
Good video
Delicious
C'est délicieux, miam miam...
So delicious.. :)
Nice
It good that he knows he cant take them all
Which beverage get along with this meal better? Vine or beer or anything other one?
It matches perfectly with a dry and young white wine. Such as an Arbois Blanc or a Côtes du Jura.
@@pierredesurosne7909 Thank you so much.
@@ayhancapan my pleasure!
Interesting
France 🇫🇷freaks eating snails 😂😂😂🐌
If no one told me what it was I'm pretty sure i'll love it
I had some in Paris, the snails are tasteless, you only taste the garlic
Never had land snails, but I've eaten fresh water ones and they taste like clams or mussels to Me.
Im terrified of snails and can’t imagine eating them, but I feel sorry for them being cooked alive...
Im carrying lil meow meow’s kittens 😂 there snails for Christ sake .
snails cant feel pain
I'm deeply disgusted by them and would rather not encounter any, but yea, it's sad to see them be cooked. They are cute sometimes
You can’t say that if u are not vegetarian.
Maya_ B ??
Snails are actually yummy.
Only 8 snails at a party? Literally i could eat like 70
I like men who can cook for their family. Very manly
Nunca he comido caracoles , que tal son?
What if he doesnt put the snails back in their own original houses after having temporarily evicted them ?
just oh....
Σ(ﾟдﾟ；)凄いインパクト☺️
美味しそー！！！
You're supposed to put them in captivity and feed them on something special before cooking them ?!
Why it should be necessery?
@@dickyarjuna1566 Removes toxins according to Girdon Ramsay
Yes because they might have toxins or other poisons inside you want them to be fully purged and cleaned. It takes at least a week. People put snail poison down etc.
Good viedio
I'm french and never eat snails. All my familly eat snails, i must try a day. Oysters are excelent ! You eat Oysters with Vinaigrette, mmmhhhh.
Après c'est surtout des clichés des anglo-saxons qui réduisent la France au fromage, au vin et la baguette (et aux escargots et cuisses de grenouille aussi). Idem pour moi je mange pas d'escargots enfin assez rarement.
J'ai jamais bouffé ces merdes
@@leviathan6661984 Palais d'enfant
Come to northeast India... U will have snail curry to another level and there will be dozens of snails for one person... And u will know where u will find the best snail dish.
I'm sure parsley and bay leaf and butter would make cack taste good to you frenchmen
Now I know French standarda
VERY DELICIOUS.I LIKE IT VERY MUCH.
I wonder he knows the compressed air just contaminated the empty shell ?
yeah unless he has a clean one with no oil in it
No los purgo, esos scargot hay que purgarlos para poder prepararlos
💯💯
snails ist also good
Poor little snail
Garyy is a bath time
Me:looks up scrago from my singing monster this: COOKED SNAIL me: I mean it is a snail so
Why am I watching this? I have molluscophobia
Poor gary
IMA GO COLLECT SNAILS 🐌 AND BRINE THEM IN BEER
At least Hans Landa won't be visiting this farm
Is this a normal dish for French people or just a dying old generation food?
A dying old generation food. I don't know anyone who eats those regularily.
And it's really understandable, snails don't have any appeal: the garlic butter is there for the sole purpose of giving them taste. It's just dull if you eat them as is.
There are lots of french meat meals that are more affordable and tastier.
Same goes for frogs. It's just a cliché.
Some food stereotypes are true, though. We do eat loads of bread (mainly baguette, but not only, we have hundreds of types of bread) and cheese.
@@blue_003b6f I’m was born in France abd move to England but not a fan of french cuisine but I love ratatouille and steak au poivre
@@gregorleroy4182 wouldn'y say a dying dish.
if you visit east or south east asia
like malaysia, vietnam, china we eat it with diferent kind of snail and shellfish
37 years old french here, even for the holy Graal i wouldn't eat that.
So much butter.
Mmmm butter
@@aaronying4989 mmmmmm buttah!!!!
why does this actually look goof
just wondering but anyone who is German went France and try 🐌?
Ohhhhhhhh ..... so the french do have Man cave !
Are they cooked alive?!
Yes?? How else would you kill them
@@aaronying4989 don't eat them, another solution, it is barbaric
@@zceylan what do you eat lol
@@aaronying4989 thousands of other things that are not cooked alive
@@zceylan Get over it you worthless clot
I think given time humans will start preparing delicacies from laterine ...
lucky sob has got it made,,what a life
I’ll eat them. The American way. Fried. With garlic sauce
R.I.P snail
Homie wanted to live but he dead

Escargot are considered a delicacy
snails are a good source of tryptophan, an amino acid that helps the brain produce serotonin .
Awesome recipe to follow ,, Thank you , Have a nice day , Tom
Sounds good for after a LSD trip
Lol .. This is the first time i'm seeing people eating this kind of snails ( I thought this snails is not edible) ..
Wow I get mine from a tin....................

""It takes to long to cook the 🐌 🐌 🐌 so my wife don't want me cookin it in the house""

@@aaronying4989 huh
Nice work for a mecanic😂
1:08 "A bay leaf.." more like 5 or 6 buddy
greeneking77 bay leaves are strong when fresh
Starved and boiled alive. Dang.
wtf was I supposed to understand him? my work language is French but I barely understood anything...
As a native french speaker I can say he has a very pronounced accent. I assume it can be difficult for you to understand him
snails are already soft, why'd u need to make em more softer? makes no sense
I suppose the poor snails are cooked alive.
مممم باين لذيذ
I had some in Paris, they are very nice but you are tasting garlic protein, the snail on its own is tasteless
The snails were meaty!
Illegal in Germany...lol damn..wish the states had them..laying around..
😩😩
Imagine if flesh eating aliens came down and picked up humans, boiled us alive and served us to their intergalactic guests! We would call them evil. Are we demons for the snails? Everything's relative, it's a matter of perspective. One man's pet can be another man's food
Even philippines eat mud snails like me
