So I’ve been indulging in scallops all summer because :
a. I’ve just discovered that I’m in love with them
b. I’m about to move from New England to Nashville

I was afraid my delicate seafood days were coming to an end, but there is hope!! Please tell me where, oh where, can I find the best scallops in town?

To Hillary: I have long been professing my unabashed adoration for miso; blogged about it here back in Feb. http://lifeinrecipes.blogspot.com/2008/02/whole-wheat-spaghetti-with-kale-and.html

Great sear on the scallops. The flavor sounds delicious.

Wanna hear something that just irks the hell out of me? I can get Red King Crab clusters cheaper than good scallops.

You know, we’ve realized that we need to put a cook book out just for you Claudia. Because you are the only one we know who is willing to try our experiments. We always say they are good, but you never know. You never really know if it is going to be a sick joke. You know, where you are left in your panties, puking in the bathroom while crying into your snot soaked sleeve.

Miso is amazing. I call it an “unami” miracle for food. I’ve yet to try it on scallops, which I absolutely adore too. This is a “must” dish, possibly even a “daily” dish if I can afford to eat it every day!
Thanks Claudia!

Maybe prettier in person, but I think the pictures do it justice enough since I can completely imagine the taste upon biting into one. I love that you threw in the last of your pancetta. Pork is always the best final touch.

I also cook scallops aplenty, without posting about them, and am always looking for new ways to make them. Noble Pig had that great champagne grape/shallot version a few weeks back and that’s up next.

Sounds like a nice flavor on those scallops. And at life in recipes, did you get that from the last season of Top Chef?

I too loved loved loved scallops until I gave the husband and myself food poisoning once. Perhaps we are ready to delve into the world of scallops again; it’s been about 1.5 years. Do you get them at Fresh Market?

I’m gonna go out on a limb with this one, but, like bacon, I think a little bit o’ miso makes everything better.

Bacon + miso = *!!!!!!*

These sound so good. And they look beautiful. It reminds me of a scallop dish I had at wd50..expect without as much molecular gastronomy.

Very Sweet-Looking Dish. For all bacon lovers, hooves down – the best pancetta money can buy is by Volpi on the Hill. Flawless blend of spiraled meat and fat, seasoned perfect and not too salty.

Fret,

“Obsession…dress them up alittle differently….just for kicks ” ??

I guess it was bound to happen. At some point, simply nekkid is no longer enough to hold the attention of some……..

The SO loves, loves, LOVES scallops. And though I did deign to saute some shrimp (I even peeled and de-veined raw shrimp–yuck!) last week whilst on vacation, I have no plans to prepare them in my kitchen. Which is why I won’t let him see this post. He’d love this.
