Sweet - Cooked Snails
(Shiro Bai)
What You Need:
  • Vegetable oil
  • 1 can bai (snail) meat
  • 1 teaspoon sake (rice wine)
  • ˝ teaspoon Japanese all-purpose soy sauce
  • MSG
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated, scraped fresh ginger root
  • How To Cook:
    1. With a paper towel, lightly coat an 8- to 10-inch skillet with vegetable oil. Heat it over moderately high heat until a drop of water flicked across its surface evaporates instantly.

    2. Add the snails, cover the pan, and fry briskly for 2 minutes, shaking the pan frequently to prevent the snails from sticking.

    3. Stir in the sake, soy sauce and a few sprinkles of MSG, cover, and cook over high heat for 20 seconds longer. Then remove from the heat.

    4. Wrap the grated ginger in a piece of cheesecloth and squeeze the juice over the snails.

    5. Stir gently to distribute the juice evenly, then cut the snails into ˝-inchpieces and serve hot.

    To Serve: 4 to 6
