Gather Your Own Escargots? Maybe You Can
"Depending on where you live in the U.S., you may be able to gather enough edible snails in your backyard to try one of the gourmet recipes found in most cookbooks."
Let me start this post by saying this:
No
No
NOOOOOOOOOO
Do not do this people unless you absolutely know how to identify snails that can be eaten.
BUT
Even if you have identified the proper snail to eat. DON'T DO IT! Snails live and eat outside right. Sometimes a snail can eat something that can have a toxic effect to a human if consumed.
It is much safer to just go and buy snails that are raised specifically for escargot.
Snail farms are a real thing here ok. And I know you are probably thinking some fool makes a living raising snails but they are out there.
Mostly because there are fools out there who will eat a freaking snail.
However, if you are interested in eating a garden pest, here is a link for a simple escargot recipe.
Who knows maybe you will find them slimy yet satisfying.
