ingredients

1 kg snail (hi-hi's or periwinkles)
fresh bread
butter
balsamic vinegar
fresh ground black pepper

directions

Rinse the hi-hi well in plenty of clean water.
Place in a large saucepan with plenty of clean sea water (or heavily salted water). Bring to a boil. As soon as water comes to a boil, remove from heat and drain.
Using a large blunt needle, prize off 'door' of the hi-hi. Tease out the meat and finally remove the hard 'door'. Place hi-hi on bread spread with a little butter.
Finally, drizzle with a little balsamic vinegar and season with black pepper to taste.
