Ingredients:

  • 1 small garlic clove
  • 3/8 tsp table salt
  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 tsp finely minced shallot
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 12 to 16 snails* (from a 7- to 8-oz can)
  • about 2 cups kosher salt (for stabilizing snail shells)
  • accompaniment: french bread

Directions:

  1. Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. Using a heavy knife, mince and mash garlic to a paste with 1/8 teaspoon table salt.
  3. Beat together butter, shallot, garlic paste, parsley, remaining 1/4 teaspoon table salt, and pepper in a small bowl with an electric mixer until combined well. Beat in wine until combined well.
  4. Divide half of garlic butter among snail shells. Stuff 1 snail into each shell and top snails with remaining butter. Spread kosher salt in a shallow baking dish and nestle shells, butter sides up, in salt.
  5. Bake snails until butter is melted and sizzling, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve immediately.
  6. * Available at Dean & Deluca (212-226-6800).
  7. >Cooks' notes: · The escargots can be prepared, but not baked, up to 30 minutes ahead and kept at room temperature until ready to bake. · If you don't have an escargot serving dish, serve the snails on a bed of kosher salt (to stabilize shells) on a platter.
