Wash the snail shells and dry them.

To try if you need to add some more butter, salt or parsley, you can melt a some jelly together with some butter.
Start to put some jelly in the snail shells , continue with the snail and end with some butter.

The way to eat snails is to pour the snails on a small piece of baguette, make sure you do not burn yourself of the warm butter or the snails. The butter that is on the plate is soaked up with a piece of baguette, so no butter is wasted.
