The snails must be fat enough, medium sized and yellow if we look at the shell. To prepare the best snails, one should not cook them immediately after they are bought. Rather, they should be soaked in the water derived from rice washing for 1-2 days so that the moss and mud in their stomach is released, making them clean to eat.
