They say, the first ever substitute "Viagra" was an apple. It not only shook everything up to a point lay dead weight, but at the same time gave the knowledge of how this greater dead weight to use. Ever since mankind began and all the trouble: it has bred, and he was forced to work by the sweat of extracting their own food.
Many thousands of years have passed, but the food is still mined in sweat. And why apples are something more magical properties are not.
But chefs are often faced with the question, say, can something so sort of eat, no tabletochek not need. On the miraculous power of walnuts and sour cream have heard many, it's true or not - is unknown. However, about the miraculous power of food and indeed many have heard, no food... we are simply dead men.
But some, such as slightly more effective than the rest.
About it and talk. And let us not recall any oysters and other delicacies such as caviar bourgeois. Let's talk about the delicacies of not less than the bourgeois, of course, but... more fun.
About snails. It is believed that they were acting well... almost like apples Adam.
Stop-stop-stop, do not be undermined, and flee to the flower bed. Domestic snail here does not roll. Need... sanktsionka. Said to be working: invite a lady to dinner, and so it is, eyebrows up and down, they say, will be sanctions-oh-oh-oh-Onka! The main thing is the eyebrows up and down, and make the voice - like a black marketeer end of the Soviet era - such defitsitiku not want to? I did not check, my wife forbids, but you if you try to - accomplish your goal as a way of working.
Well, seriously, snails really tasty stuff. You can buy ready-made (about the area of 400 rubles packaging), and can be fresh. Depending on how many snails are buying 10 to 50rubley for things (cheaper oysters anyway).
So, if you bought snails fresh (live), then the first thing to do - Pomorie their hunger. That the body is nothing left of what they were eating. We starve them for three days, daily bathing and snails themselves, and the dishes in which they are suffering.
After describing the first step, you still want to escargot?
- Then boil the water and, after tripling snail shower, so they povylazili from shells, zashvyrivaem them in boiling water. At this stage, usually falls off another third wanting to try escargot, and thereby improve their... uh... force.
- Cook snails fifteen minutes, merge, cool and begin to pull out of their shells. In this case it merges the last third of the future gourmets because pull the snail from the shell completely is very difficult, even boiled.
- When pulled out, we should chop off at snails crawling... part. Here it is, and then we will have. Creeping of the turns a little, but what to do. We send these pieces in a bowl, add salt and trying to wash off the slime.
- Next step: cook crawling part. Better - in white wine. We throw to the boiling whole carrots, an onion, a few peppercorns, you can add salt, bay leaf. Boil, make the fire to a minimum, tormented for an hour.
- At this time we cook the shells again! With soda. To clean the mucus. Sodas do not regret, at least five spoons need, otherwise not be able to bring to the desired condition. After two hours the water is drained, washed and pour all the remaining water from the shells. It requires skill, you can shake the shells can be a mother, you can dance to dance African shamans.
- When all the water poured out, the shells dry and - oh joy, start cooking dressing. Drain oil mixed with garlic and spicy herbs - parsley, dill, rosemary.
- Now push in the armor - first a little oil, then - a snail, then - again a little oil. We spread it all in form and - Bake. twenty minutes
Served with white wine, of course, if you have not had a drink all in the cooking process.
I do not know if it helps to increase virility dish and satisfy instincts, but for you... fucking sure. And so thorough.
Bon appetit and hot dishes to you!
