Percebes

Prepare the Percebes

Rinse the percebes under cold running water to remove any sand or debris.

Boil the Water

In a large pot, bring 4 liters of water to a boil.

Add the sea salt and stir to dissolve.

Cook the Percebes

Carefully add the percebes to the boiling salted water.

Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the percebes turn a bright reddish color. They should be cooked through but not overcooked.

Drain and Season

Using a slotted spoon, remove the percebes from the pot and transfer them to a plate.

In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Do not let the garlic brown.

Serve

Drizzle the garlic oil over the cooked percebes.

Garnish with lemon slices and chopped fresh parsley.
