Also referred to as the “Common Periwinkle,” you may have come across these tiny snails hanging out on the rocks at your favorite beach somewhere in the New England Area. These small yet delicious snails should not be overlooked as a delicious snack or appetizer tossed in some garlic and butter. Tiny periwinkles boast a sweet, briny flavor similar to clams. These mollusks are sourced near the shores of New England, these small snails are perfect brasserie style (a la escargot) or steamed in a broth of soy, miso, and kombu.
