About Mollusks, scallop, (bay and sea), cooked, steamed
Scallops are the tender, sweet shellfish that have become a restaurant favorite — quick-seared to a golden crust, prized for their delicate flavor and soft, almost buttery bite. Bay scallops are small and sweet; sea scallops are large and meaty.
They're a lean, light protein: high in protein with very little fat, plus a good supply of vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorus and some omega-3s. Naturally low in calories, they only become rich when cooked in the butter and cream sauces they're so often paired with.
Scallops cook in a matter of minutes — overdone they turn rubbery, so a quick, hot sear is the way to keep them tender.
