Tiny but mighty, periwinkle snails, known locally as “isam”, are a coastal delicacy loved for their distinct flavor and impressive nutritional benefits. Harvested fresh from Nigeria’s clean shorelines, these shellfish are a favorite in traditional soups, sauces, and seafood medleys.
Packed with protein, low in fat, and rich in minerals like iron and calcium, periwinkles are as nourishing as they are delicious. Whether you're making Afang, Edikang Ikong, or a simple seafood stir-fry, these little snails add a savory, ocean-fresh taste that elevates every dish.
