Isam (Periwinkle) are a specie of edible sea snails that posses gills and operculum. They are small mollusks that are usually brown, black or gray in color and are about 1/2″wide and 1″ long. They can be found on rocks or pilings in the intertidal areas.  Across Asia and Africa,  Periwinkle is considered a delicacy. They have a tender yet firm flesh and are full of flavour.  Usually boiled in water, they can be consumed warm or cold.  Dried Isam (periwinkle), a popular West African seafood delicacy, is now available in a convenient 25 pound bag. These small, flavorful snails are carefully harvested, cleaned, and sun-dried to preserve their unique taste and texture. Isam is a versatile ingredient that can be used in various dishes, adding a savory and slightly chewy element to soups, stews, and sauces.
