Scallops are sweet, flavorsome and delicious. According to Ayurvedic principles, scallops have a high amount of zinc thus they are good for increasing libido in both men and women. Unlike the oyster, scallops are sweeter in flavor and can be a very sensual ingredient to work with.
When I embarked on my journey of cooking these fabulous sea creatures, I soon figured out that overcooking could lead to rubbery disaster. Instead I sear them in very hot butter until golden, then flip em’ over and cook through, I always prefer to undercook then overcook them!!!
