How to clean snails?
Really want to spit out the recent rapid rise in seafood prices ~ near the Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day? After a holiday, all kinds of seafood prices skyrocketed, which is the most uncontrollable phenomenon for Yao Mei! However, you also want to buy me a minibus. Should my greedy mother treat my children? Special pet? Come on ~ In fact, our family is just an ordinary family, doesn't it look very average? Xiaokang? None of them are ordinary, but they always adhere to one principle: just wear comfortable clothes and like them, and never stick to the brand; Just use suitable and practical things, and never buy flashy things; But food must be eaten well, delicious and loved, and balanced in nutrition.

Snails are my favorite snail meat. Basically, if there are fresh snails in the market, Yaomei will buy one three or two times a week. If there are other seafood for Xiao Huba, I will make a snail menu with a stronger taste. (Still an old saying goes: Yaomei loves spicy food ~) Snails cooked with spicy wine, snails chilled in Thai style, etc. This is the most commonly used mode.

Then I bought this seafood food today, so my sister chose the most primitive and simple way to cook it for Xiao Huba. Although it's simple, it also has skills ~

Boiled snail

Main ingredients: snails.

Side dishes/seasonings: ginger, salt, soy sauce, mustard, cooking wine.

The cooking steps are as follows:

1. Wash the snail, add a proper amount of salt, grind it clockwise or counterclockwise, and soak it for about 20 minutes.

2. Peel and slice ginger for later use;

3. Boil the pot with clear water and put ginger slices (in fact, Yaomei usually puts a proper amount of citronella when cooking snails, but unfortunately she didn't buy all the supermarkets today); The taste cooked in this way is delicious, and my xiaohuba likes it best;

4. Add the snail, drop two drops of cooking wine, cook for about 3-4 minutes, and turn off the fire;

5. After cooking, remove the floating foam on the surface, then take out the fragrant snail and put it on a plate;

6. What is the simplest sauce for Yaomei? Sushi? Dip sauce: soy sauce+mustard; Of course, if you give it to children, just add a few drops of lime juice to the soy sauce.

Tip: Although it is only boiled in water, it looks very simple, and it is indeed a very simple cooking method; However, we should also pay attention to two points: skill one, you must choose fresh snails when buying. Live snails usually show their bodies and tentacles. When a finger touches them, the snail will retract, and the shell is slippery and has a layer of liquid; Tip 2: When cleaning the fragrant snails, put some salt, rotate clockwise or counterclockwise and soak for at least 20 minutes. Tip 3: Don't cook snails for too long. After boiling, add the snail and cook for about 3-4 minutes, then turn off the fire and take it out. Cooked for too long, snail meat will get old and taste bad.
