Escargot en Croute

ingredients for 6 servings :

1 c Butter
1/4 c Finely chopped parsley
8 Garlic cloves; minced
1 Shallot
2 tb Dry white wine
1 1/2 ts Worcestershire sauce
1 ts Fresh lemon juice
1 ts Pernod
2 Anchovy fillets; minced
1/4 ts Hot pepper sauce
Salt & freshly ground pepper
2 tb Butter
36 Snails; washed
1/4 c Diced onion
6 tb Dry white wine
6 Puff pastry dough sheets (should be cut slightly larger than escargot dish.)
1 Egg
2 tb Water
preparation:
For BUTTER MIXTURE: Whip butter in mixing bowl. Add next 9 ingredients with salt and pepper to taste, and mix well. Set aside.

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in medium skillet. Add snails, onion and wine and saute' until liquid evaporates. Set aside and let cool.

Place one snail in each hole of escargot dish. Generously cover with butter mixture. Place 1 sheet of puff pastry dough over each escargot dish. Trim dough and seal around edge of dish. Beat egg with water and use to brush dough. Chill until ready to bake, at least 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake until pastry rises and is golden, about 20 to 30 minutes. Remaining butter mixture can be refrigerated as long as 2 weeks and used when garlic butter is needed.

8, wrong!

MikeFold · 03-03-2004

hmmmm......................

disregard....brain fart

ok...now i am confused. A "day" starts at midnight [thus, night]
so the mollusk begins with a 2 foot deficit, thus, not starting the ascent from a starting point [ground zero] until day 3, thus, not passing the pinnacle until day 11

???

wrong test
;_))

READ it and weap
;_))

Question

A snail is at the bottom of a 15 meter tree. He tries to reach the top. Each day, he manages to climb 4 meters, but during night, while he sleeps, he slips back 3 meters. How many days will he need to reach the top?

Winetalk.com · 03-03-2004

sorry, can't disregard...as I mentione dbefore:
I keep my fingers on ALL triggers

MikeFold · 03-03-2004

I hope you are not telling me that it starts from
"2 feet under"
;-)))

don't tel me you use the same logic in purchase of FNSR...or than we are fucked BOTH!
;-))))

MikeFold · 03-03-2004

hahahahaha

no...it was never stated where the creature started on the tree, whereas, in the sample i showed you, it clearly indicated the appetizer started at the bottom...

How was I supposed to know that?

....assumption is the mother........

You're not getting off that easy serge...

1. It does not declare a starting point, nor does it even implicate that its a tree. As far as i construed it, it was a 40 ft. 4X4 post, and the dreaded escargot was placed by you at eye level in a spot 6 feet off the ground when he began his/her ascent up the pole on February 21 [11 days ago] at 12:01 a.m. [the start of a new day].

2. You marked a spot with orange paint 10 feet higher [and named it 10 feet mark] and the mollusk began his ascent. Thus, starting at nite, the creature slid down 2 feet before even beginning the trek up the pole.

MikeFold, you should be THAT ANAL in your stock analysis!
;-)))))

I see your logic, BTW,
but...
do you know me for putting trick questions?????

I am a SIMPLETON!,
just ask my wife, she'll tell ya!

MikeFold · 03-03-2004

that was pretty anal....wasn't it?

ok...i made my point...
i am much too analytical...

2 Days

Carrie · 03-04-2004

8 days isn't possibly long enough.
Snails multiply worse than rabbits.
He'd have to stop each night to get his groove on, during which the resulting motion would make him slide an additional 2 feet.

The end result is that he'd stay at the bottom of the tree boffing his slimy little brains out and sending hundreds of smaller snails up the tree.
