  • Rinse the snails thoroughly. Drop them into a pot of already-boiling water (so they die instantly) and boil over very low heat for 30 minutes. Then tip them into a colander and let the water drain completely. In a bowl, combine the soy sauce with the wine and vinegar, add the finely chopped chili and garlic, and stir in the sugar. Add the thyme and rosemary. Mix the marinade and add the snails. The marinade should cover the snails completely; if there isn't enough, increase the amount, and be sure to stir the snails so they marinate evenly. Leave the snails in the marinade for a day, then arrange them on a plate, drizzle with lemon juice, and serve garnished with lemon wedges and fresh herbs. Help yourself!
