Escargot is a preparation of snails usually in garlic and butter sauce and typically eaten on special occasions or in high-end restaurants. Despite its reputation as a staple of French cuisine, escargot is usually only eaten in France on special occassions and is not a common entree.

Preparation and Serving
The preparation process begins with removing the snails from their shells. Escargot need to be cleaned and gutted before cooking. Once clean and stomach matter is removed, the snails are then sauteed in fresh, diced garlic, butter and white wine. After cooking, they are returned back to their shells along with a splash of the garlic butter sauce.Serve with a glass of Champagne and a slice of crusty bread.
