Burgundy Snails are a typical appetizer of French tradition. They are snails served with a rich sauce made of butter, carrot, onion, parsley, and wine vinegar. This preparation is particularly widespread in Burgundy, a French region famous for its traditional cuisine.
Wash the snails under running water, remove the calcareous membrane that closes the shell, and place them in a bowl with two glasses of vinegar, two of water, and a handful of coarse salt
Soak the snails for at least 24 hours, then wash them again under running water
Place the snails in a large saucepan, add plenty of water, coarse salt, and two glasses of vinegar, bring to a boil, and let cook for a quarter of an hour over moderate heat
At the end, drain the snails, let them cool on a plate, then remove them from the shell and eliminate the darker terminal part and the tentacles
In a clean pot, bring to a boil a glass of water together with two of white wine, the onion, the carrot, the basil, the sage, salt, and pepper
