limpet

Easily identified by its coolie hat-shaped shell, this gastropod can be seen clinging to rocks along the seashore. Its meat, which is flavorful but tough, can be consumed raw — either plain or tossed with a vinaigrette dressing. More often, it's tenderized by pounding before being sautéed for a few seconds on each side. Lengthy cooking will toughen the meat. Limpets are usually only available in coastal areas and then only from specialty fish markets. See also shellfish.
