Frozen Spotted Babylon Snails
Sourced from clean coastal waters and quick-frozen soon after harvest, these shellfish are prized for their naturally sweet, tender meat. Each shell carries a handsome brown-and-white spotted pattern, and inside sits a plump, springy morsel that keeps its bite.

Cooking Suggestions
Boiled: Thaw in the refrigerator, rinse the shells well, then cook in boiling water until the meat is done. Serve with a garlic and chilli dipping sauce.
Spicy marinated: Boil first, then soak in a dressing of chilli, garlic, spring onion and vinegar for several hours for deeper flavour.
When stir-frying or braising, cook with ginger, garlic, chilli and aromatics — and avoid overcooking, which makes the meat rubbery.
Storage
Keep frozen at -18°C or below. Thaw in the refrigerator and do not refreeze after full thawing. Keep the packaging sealed to prevent freezer burn and absorbed odours.
