This quote, from the French Laundry Cookbook, teaches something important about craft, by way of snails:
"Snails are now commercially cultivated in California, giving us a new ingredient to work with. I wanted to use them in a way that wasn't stereotypical but also wasn't so far away from traditional preparations as to be contrived or confusing."
