Making this for dinner this upcoming week.

[Michie]

You must really get fresh ones. The ones I see in the meat dept. don't have shells.

Well they do sell them without shells but they still have that rubbery piece that connected to the shell.

 

[Shane R]

Interesting. I can get them fully cleaned, just drop in a pan. But I live right by the coast and have access to most any seafood one could want in most any condition one might want it. My kids are very fond of scallops though I have not seen the sea scallops for less than $17.99/lb in months. But they'll eat bay scallops too, which go on sale regularly.

I worked at the fish counter inside a grocery store for a while and the sea scallops came in big can. Sort of like pre-picked crab meat but bigger. I don't think anyone ever asked to buy the whole can. We would pop one open every 2 or 3 days and sell the scallops loose.

Here they are usually 9.99 a pound. In a can sounds dangerous.

Are they like so many things that say that the small ones are far more tastier? I was surprised at your answer as it is a fish, sort of? it should taste and smell fishy?

 

[Shane R]

The cans were flash frozen.at a chain grocery store most of the shellfish is either flash frozen, pasteurized, or both.

No it shouldn’t. I like the large ones myself. They have a very delicate buttery flavor.

I get mine in an airtight bag that is frozen. Probably flash frozen as Shane said.

 

[returntosender]

Well that is interesting as I never thought they might come in something other then fresh in the meat section. I will have to take a look next time. One thing I cringe about is refrozen shrimp. It is when they have it on display fresh on ice and then they bag it up and freeze it to sell. ooooooooooooh! yuck. I have bought it and it doesn't taste good. As a matter of fact I have some in my freezer I need to throw away but I hate throwing food away.

Oh they sell it in the seafood section but I do not live on the coast where you can buy this type of thing fresh.

 

[Tone]

Here's what I got going on right now:

Finally taking the time to do some sides.

Chicken, Spanish rice, and golden corn!

Nice Shabbat meal. Shalom.

 

[returntosender]

I am baking a pork roast hoping the fat will disappear. The outside has pockets of fat and I am hoping there maybe solid meat inside, sigh. Some pork cuts are just a waste to try and save. The pockets were to small and to many to try and cut out.

Me either, I think they probably get them frozen and thaw them out for display.

Looks delicious!
WOW you are clean, lol. I think my stove wasn't that clean when it was new>)

 

[returntosender]

I hope you don't mind Michie but your thread has become a catchall, lol. If you'd rather we don't we can go back to the food thread?

No it’s not a problem at all. I enjoy the fellowship! Tone has it going on doesn’t he?

When I was first trained to cook, at about 19 years of age, my teacher instilled the idea of cleaning up as I went, and not getting everything all dirty and then cleaning it.

So, when I'm in the kitchen, I'm cleaning while the food cooks and once it's done I clean all the cooking pots and utensils and then ..and only then, do I sit down to eat.

You’ll make someone a good husband one day.
