Doraemon manga appeared many times in the salamander, is Japan's national cuisine, the country to canned products are more common, but usually other snails impersonation, after all, the number of wild salamander snails is not enough to support commercial fishing, although live is not difficult to buy, few people buy home material, because this kind of conch meat processing has a certain degree of difficulty!
Doraemon and Nobita eat roast salamanders at the bottom of the sea.
The most obvious feature of the salamander's appearance is the rounded horn-like protrusions, but some subspecies do not, and the mouth cover is thick and hard, unlike other common snails, which are only thin. The lid of the salamander family is calcareous and very thick, and the heaviest salamander lid on record is nearly one kilogram!

The Japanese also made it into an animated film and a live-action movie Miss Salamander. In 2013, the animated version of Miss Salamander was certified by Guinness World Records as "the longest-running TV cartoon"
The salamander is roasted in the place where the temperature of the fire net is highest, and after about five minutes, the shell is all dried. At this time, take out the snail and put it back in the shell, add two drops of shellfish with soy sauce, and then grill it slightly to eat.
The second half of the salamander is visceral, and it is recommended to cut it off, because it will be bitter. The snail meat is fresh and hard, very Q-degree, but I think it has been roasted for so long, only to eat a little snail meat, it is really not addictive, this is probably more suitable for wine, belongs to the pleasure of drinkers.
Personally, I think drinking it with beer is a perfect match.
Snail meat can be eaten with a toothpick.
If you feel like you're having trouble eating with a toothpick, you can also ask for a snail grill.
Outer box of canned salamanders.
If we want to eat salamander in China, we can consider buying a box of canned food to relieve our hunger. (The price is quite fair) However, the production of salamander snails is small, the economic benefits of breeding are not high, coupled with the limited amount of manpower fishing, the processing plant is replaced by other edible snails, usually the rock snails imported from the Black Sea and South America are the most common, and field snails and Fushou snails can also be used as canned raw materials.
Canned snail (braised flavor) Canned snail meat processing process adds a lot of brown sugar, the taste is delicious and sweet, directly poured out can be served on the table, often one of the cold dishes, and jellyfish skin in the competition; the original juice in the can is dark brown, the shop and chef will not easily discard the original juice, usually left to cook the soup, a canned can is enough to make a pot of soup into a super delicious.
The delicious taste of canned salamander is not inferior to canned abalone, for people who have not cooked, or do not pay much attention to diet, canned snail meat may be very strange, but for those who have studied cuisine slightly, or who attach importance to food culture, canned snails are infinitely useful, and at the same time, the price is reasonable, and it is a secret weapon for soup freshness, and even can use canned snails to easily conjure up French baked field snails.
