Pillivuyt Six Serving Classic Escargot Plate and Baker, White Description

Pillivuyt has perfected this Classic Six Serving Baker for Escargot - available fresh, chilled, canned, or frozen. Escargots, French for snail, have been consumed since the dawn of time. Discarded roasted snail shells have been found in archeological digs indicating that prehistoric humans enjoyed them. Escargot was a favorite of ancient Romans and other Europeans during the festivals of Lent, Mardi Gras, and Carnival! A traditional recipe: 1 tablespoon parsley ¿ finely minced, 1 teaspoon shallot ¿ finely minced, 1 tablespoon garlic ¿ finely minced, .25 teaspoon salt, .25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, .5 teaspoon white wine, 1 teaspoon cognac, a dash of nutmeg, and 6 tablespoons butter - softened. Using a mortar - pound parsley, shallot and garlic into a paste. Using a food processor, alternately, place parsley/shallot/garlic paste, salt, pepper, wine, cognac, and nutmeg in the bowl and process until mixed. Add butter and process to combine. Preheat oven to 450° F. Arrange snails in individual wells of the Classic Escargot Baker and top each with a dollop of the butter mélange. Place the Baker in the oven and bake for 9 minutes, or until snails are hot and bubbling. Enjoy! The walls of these dishes, as in all Pillivuyt items, are created with a perfectly uniform thickness for exceptionally even and efficient heat conduction. Pillivuyt porcelain is fired at 2550 degrees Fahrenheit, so you can safely put any dish under the broiler for that final browning or finishing touch.
