Half Shell Scallops with Roe

$79.00 $39.50/kg

Opened and left on the shell, these keep their coral roe and the sweet liquor that comes with it. The shell doubles as the serving dish, which makes them unusually simple to cook and plate.

The meat is plump and translucent with a clean sea sweetness and none of the grit that badly handled shellfish picks up. Roe sets faster than the muscle, so keep the heat moderate and the timing short.
