Scallop Martinis

    This is quite a different appetizer! I don't believe we've ever tried anything like it before! used Finlandia, but would like to try it with Grey Goose as Leslie suggests, or Belvedere, another favorite of mine. This would be fun to have in the summer, at the end of a day of gardening, relaxing on the deck. Made for Recipe Swap #12. Thanks, Leslie! Originally reviewed January 28, 2008.

    Scallop Martinis, Warning! I have it upon good authority that this recipe just really is NOT GOOD I posted it in good faith, having loved recipes by Lucy Waverman many times before But sadly, this is not one that stands the test! Prepare at your peril, it’s really no a good recipe Don’t waste your money on the scallops for this one 🙁 Original Intro was: A sexy appetizer served in Martini glasses Eat the scallops and drink the spicy Martini Great for a dinner with that special someone, or for a dinner party Cooking time is marinating time Another recipe by Lucy Waverman at Food and Drink I am secretly posting this in honor of my wonderful friend Potsie, he’ll find this recipe at some point :), This is quite a different appetizer! I don’t believe we’ve ever tried anything like it before! used Finlandia, but would like to try it with Grey Goose as Leslie suggests, or Belvedere, another favorite of mine This would be fun to have in the summer, at the end of a day of gardening, relaxing on the deck Made for Recipe Swap #12 Thanks, Leslie! Originally reviewed January 28, 2008 , This was the most interesting martini I have ever eaten? drank?used Bay scallops as I had them on hand I reduced the marinating time to 2 hours so the little darlings wouldn’t get overcooked They looked stunning and tasted like nothing I have had before Maybe a drunken ceviche? I made the full recipe although there were only two of us DH ate/drank his and thought it was ok but didn’t want another I thought it was both intriguing and odd I had a second one and it became less odd and when I had the third I was rather liking it A lot apparently 🙂 Gorgeous presentation and a unique flavour! I would make this again when we have more adventurous people over or at least people with a more sophisticated palate than my own Made for The Bistro Babes – ZWT 8
