How Scallops Are Supposed To Be Made

    It is important to obtain good quality scallops for this cooking method. Ideally, they are 'dry', 'diver' or 'day boat'. Unfortunately most scallops are 'wet', often with added sodium tripolyphosphate. For the best discussion of buying scallops (that I have found), go to https://lobsteranywhere.com/seafood-savvy/how-to-buy-fresh-scallops/ P.S. The first syllable of scallop rhymes with HALL, not with HAL!
