I do not like fish, but I like scallops. My wife talked me into trying fish&chips at a good restaurant on Cape Cod and I loved it, It's a major reason why I go to the cape.

might be my favorite, but almost nevah fried for me.
Love them big sea scallops, fresh without the saline or whatever they inject when "processed".
Pull off that muscle thing, rinse em good and pat 'em dry, then a little s & p and some paprika on both sides, mix some olive oil and butter in the old cast iron skillet, 'bout a minute on each side or until a little browned.WHOA! are they sweeeeet!

^Sounds like a plan... you know me, I love seafood.

Today is gonna be oven baked salmon with basil pesto butter and a greek style salad my wife makes with red onion, tomato, cucumber, corn and avocado. Some balsamic vinaigrette on that and bing, bang, boom... there ya go.

I don't eat them but have made them for others and this is pretty much the way I'd cook them. Bacon wrapped sea scallops are also a big hit for seafood fans. I know how to cook them but not a fan of eating them. Fake scallops are just wrong - made from stingray, skate, or shark and using a cookie cutter circle to make it look like a scallop.

There is a nice seafood market/restaurant/distributor in my area a few towns to the east in Fitchburg, MA. They have been around for ages. https://sslobsterfitchburg.com/

They have great seafood (so I'm told). They have small limited seating restaurant, a small little market attached to it if you want to by fishy stuff and take it home. I see their delivery box trucks around town at most places that serve seafood in my neck of the woods.

If you are ever out in this area and crave seafood, I'd recommend the place.

I LOVE scallops too! Gimme a heads up next time you get some, I’ll be there in time for the 1st seating.

Years ago my MIL used to buy us dried scallops from Japan all the time…but so much that eventually we got tired of it. Now, they’re expen$ive and not something you just pick up on a whim.

Haha! No worries, every major super market / big box has them. Unfortunately they aren’t a favorite of my wife’s so I usually order them when we’re at a restaurant or sushi bar.

New knowledge: if you use lapsang souchong tea to make simple syrup, it makes the syrup taste like smoke. Then put it in your old fashioned cocktail. I call it “the burnt Reynolds”
