Scallops, Dry

by radiating ribs or grooves and concentric growth rings. These are dry scallops sold as 10/20, 20/30 and U-10. |
Scallops, Calico Bay
 |
Calico scallops are small sea scallops
from Mexico. They are the tiniest of the scallops, and it is difficult to keep them tender because it is easy to over cook them.
Calico scallops are sold by the pound. |
Scallops, Processed
|
Scallops are sweet, rich, sometimes briny flavor and lean, firm texture that make them highly desirable for everything
from appetizers to entrees. Processed sea scallops are injected with a solution of water and sodium tripolyphosphate. This keeps the scallops
plumper and reduces drip loss.
Processed scallops are sold as 10/20, 20/30, and U-10
