What's your favorite way to cook scallops?

Dry pan, rub a tiny bit of oil on the scallops themselves, salt and pepper.

Raw right out of the shell. Or seared a bit over the BBQ if I have to cook them.

Set scallops on a wire drying rack/cooling rack. Let them dry out. Take the most fresh local smoked bacon and throw that in a pan with pork rub.. cook bacon until almost crispy. Pull bacon from pan or griddle, and add butter to browned rub and bacon grease, and add scallops for literally a min each side. Pull scallops, and take two half pieces of bacon and make an x over the scallop and stab with toothpick. Enjoy!!!

Cast iron skillet, kept at 450, "dry" dry scallops, 2 mins per side in thin layer of either peanut or avocado oil. Done to perfection. Expect to spend close to $30/lb today (2023) for U10 (jumbos). Worth the price, if you like a sea delicacy

Scallops, cooked right are heavenly.

High heat with olive oil. Once hot...1:30 on the first side..flip. 1:00 on the next and you're dunno. Just make sure you start that timer before you set the first one in and you place them one by one in a clockwise position so you know when its time to flip for the last minute. Melt butter for dipping (garlic optional).. feast.

3:06 there’s no problem using butter but only as an adjunct oil for taste not cooking…in other words add the butter 20-30 secs before they’re done and baste the scallops in the butter. This basting and short exposure time to heat will ensure the butter doesn’t burn.

I agree, that’s what I do, I never use clarified butter because it has no flavor at all..

I love adding scallops to my winter cIoppino.

It’s great, this is one of my favorites

I regularly dive for scallops and sell them on to restaurants to cover my cost. The thing is a lot will not take them unless they’ve been soaked in water to make them look bigger when served on the plate.

WHERES THE LAMB SAUCE?

Butter will get you into trouble given that it has one of the lowest smoke points at about 170-C about the same as olive oil (and most of the other oils) Gee which is butter with its dairy components removed has a smoke point of about 270-C = producing an easy predictable triumph every single time. It really is about having oil with a very very very high smoke point at least a start the scallops; having put in 6/12 well separated scallops because they take the heat out of the pan very quickly you can always turn the heat down until you get a bit of colour and are able to turn them over.

I like to cook so many things putting butter and olive oil in a pan. It is also very tasty to put scallops in flour. I put some flour in a jar and add garlic powder , salt and pepper and shake the jar to cover the scallops. The scallops turn out delicious and have a nice brown seared finish to them. then you can make a,nice white sauce add garlic , cream and Some cheese if desired. You do not need to use any alcohol. I never drink alcohol so I do not miss that flavor.

Good tips

Never seen such boring seafood, l live in the uk and have the benefit of tasing the most mouthwatering scallops from Kirkcudbright in Scotland. I would never want to eat a scallop without the coral! Most of us in Europe eat all of the Scallop, not just the heart. Agree with not over cooking but cook with garlic on a slow heat in oil and butter for no more than 5 minutes! Awesome! They are so rich. Who wants to go to a restaurant?

Best way go cook to proper doneness is use an instant read thermometer like a Thermoworks and pull them at 140°F. Perfect every time.

3:07 - The smoke point of Avocado Oil is 500 degrees. You could always used "clarified" butter, as well.

small bay ones make a great chowder or saveche

Seared in clarified butter. Sometimes in restaurants after rinsing in cold water we would soak them in milk for a while - or actually store them in milk for service - which helped add a bit more sweetness and get rid of the chemical taste, dry them off before cooking. The best scallops, and seafood in general, was at places where we would get fresh seafood flown in directly from Boston. Also, do not crowd the pan and cook a few at a time. It always bothered me that in the U.S. they get rid of the red roe from the scallop (female scallops have a red structure as seen at 1:32 and 7:26) I only ever had this when I was in London and was able to have the scallops shucked in front of me and the fish monger kept the roe attached best scallops I ever had!!!!.

Well written. As for the red roe, that is the best part of the scallop. Here in NZ, they couldn't be sold without the roe. I couldn't believe it when I went to live in the UK. Not only did they have the roe removed, i saw in the supermarket "Bacon flavoured scallops". You could have knocked me over with a Feather.

And those who don't, the wait staff let them sit under the heat lamp and THATS what causes them to get overcooked.

Unless I can buy scallops straight off the boat I pass on them. We love scallops but the last 30 years it has become progressively more difficult to find unadulterated scallops. We always cook them ourselves since most restaurants are clueless to how to cook and serve them. When cooking them we always keep it simple. Butter a little garlic and pepper and sear. One other tip. If u can't buy scallops of the same size/count. Cook them in batches of the same size so they cook uniformally. This seems to be a problem at a lot of restaurants. You end up with half cooked right and the other half overdone because of the variations in size. Nothing like a fresh scallop.

Scallops are in my top five favorite foods.

Some of the suspect seafood restaurants sell “skate wings” as scallops. They use a punch

@druegillis1744

Adding to the above, they would use a round punch to mimic the shape of scallops. One time I ordered fried scallops and they arrived as little triangular shaped pieces. I confronted the manager, told him I had never seen scallops shaped like that. Didn’t charge me and we never ate there again.

great vid

You really haven't tried scallops until you have floured and deep fried them. When they are done, they will float to the top.

whatever you do make sure you have good quality scallops that aren't wet, because it is the difference between a bitter rubbery mess and a nicely seared jewel of the sea

Great video! I see what I've been doing wrong, always been a disaster. I've only gotten properly prepared scallops at 4 star restaurants. So expensive that it's a disaster if they aren't prepared correctly. BTW, those are SEA SCALLOPS. In contrast, bay scallops are not worth buying, they have no taste. Don't waste your money.

Over cooking is what everyone does wrong.

Always steam seafood. Use a torch to get the seared effects and thank me later.

Taking the roe off is your first mistake.

Vegetable oils are the unhealthiest oils any seed oil or so cold vegetable oil is actually industrially processed chemical produced in factories not just similar to oil refineries they are best cooked in avocado oil or coconut oil which can handle the high heat recommending canola which is actually no such thing it’s rapeseed oil the marketing department gave with the name canola for obvious reasonsRecommending an oil full of omega six fatty acids which are not healthy at all is not a good idea
