Whelks
Fresh whelks are large sea snails with firm meat and a distinctive maritime flavour. They live on soft sandy seabeds and are recognisable by their brown-green exterior and pale interior shell. Whelks can grow to approximately 10 cm and are a traditional component of classic fruits de mer.
Flavour & texture
Rich, saline and distinctly maritime, with firm and meaty flesh.
Culinary applications
Best cooked in a strongly seasoned court-bouillon. Fredimare recommends cooking the whelks for approximately 20 minutes; excessive cooking can make the meat tough. Once cooked, the meat can be removed from the shell and served chilled. Excellent for fruits de mer, seafood platters and cold starters.
