Periwinkles

$19.99

Weight Label
2 lb (80-100 per lb)
This is a Fisherman’s Request item.*Not to be overlooked as merely humble vessels for butter and garlic, tiny periwinkles boast a sweet, briny flavor similar to clams. These plump mollusks are sourced near the rocky shores of New England, these whorled-shelled baby snails are perfect brasserie style (a la escargot) or steamed in a broth of soy, miso, and kombu.
*This item is based on what’s in the catch of the day. If unavailable, we can help. Please see your options at checkout.

How to Serve Periwinkles
Periwinkles can be prepared like escargot or added to chowders. They pop out of their shells when cooked, ready for dipping into melted herb butter!

Portion Size
There are approximately 80-100 Periwinkles in a pound and we recommend serving half a pound to 1 pound per person.

Wine Pairings

"Periwinkles are fun with a simple sparkler like Cava, Prosecco, or Cremant de Bourgogne."
