Snail caviar is a culinary preparation that consists of snail caviar, also known as snail pearls. These caviars are small, round and white, and are often compared to sturgeon caviar because of their crunchy texture and delicate taste.
The process of producing snail caviar usually involves stimulating snails to lay caviar and harvesting them. The caviar is then washed, sorted and preserved in a brine. Snail caviar can be eaten on its own or used as an ingredient in haute cuisine dishes to add texture and flavor.
Snail caviar is often considered a rare delicacy.
