20 snails
2 pt (1,1L) milk
Anchovy essence
Salt
Oil
1 tbsp red wine

Remove the membranes from the snails to enable them to come out of their shells easier

Put the snails into a pot and cover with the milk

Leave for 2 days. Once an hour take the waste material the snails produce from the milk. (The servants can do this) Change the milk daily

After the seven days, the snails will have absorbed the milk, and they will not be able to get back into their shells

Remove the now fattened snails from their shells and fry in oil

Serve with the anchovy essece and the wine.
