Slow Cooker Giant African Land Snails

Sounds delicious. As they say here in SA “local is lekker” and we see plenty of these ingredients snails around the cottage, as you might have seen from my flickr stream:

The link provided above doesn’t actually take you through to the recipe (that’s actually here), but rather to the charming story of someone following the recipe. The twist in the tale comes as our protagonist used to own an African Giant Land Snail as a pet and it takes her a fair amount of sherry to overcome her reticence to… er… “begin” the creative process.

Go, be brave, hold the contents of your stomach and learn the ins and outs of cooking big molluscs.
