- Butter: Unsalted and softened at room temperature.
- Citrus zest: Finely grated lemon or orange peel (to match the fresh gin aroma).
- Fresh fennel or dill: Finely chopped to enhance the anise-like tones in the gin.
- Coriander seeds: Lightly crushed to mirror the gin's botanicals.
- Sea salt: A pinch to accentuate the saline character of Hermit Dutch Coastal Gin.
- Shallot and a splash of gin: For a subtle depth of flavor.
- Mix the butter: Blend the softened butter with the citrus zest, finely chopped fennel or dill, a minced shallot, crushed coriander seeds, and sea salt. Add a few drops of Hermit Gin for a direct flavor connection.
- Prepare the shells: Ensure the escargot shells are clean and dry. If using canned escargots, rinse them briefly and drain well.
- Add the first layer of butter: Use a small knife or a pastry bag to push a small dollop of the herb butter deep into the empty shell.
- Insert the snail: Gently push the escargot into the shell on top of the first layer of butter.
- Seal with butter: Completely fill the rest of the opening with a generous amount of the remaining herb butter. This seals the snail inside and allows the flavors to melt together while cooking.
- Bake: Place the stuffed shells facing upwards in an escargot dish or on a bed of coarse sea salt. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in a preheated oven at 200°C (390°F) until the butter is bubbling and golden brown.
