Scallops are bivalve mollusks with scallop-edged, fan-shaped shells. The scallop is possibly best known for its beautiful and distinctive shell. This favorite can be used as an appetizer before an elegant repast. Or else, you may prefer a more traditional recipe such as Coquilles Saint-Jacques, a creamy scallop recipe found in many cookbooks.

Cooking and preparation tips are essential for home cooking especially when it comes to seafood and especially when we're talking about mollusks. Scallops are one of the most delectable foodstuffs to come from the sea. Not much more expensive than other bivalve mollusk cousins, they are so rich, sweet and tender that a little goes a long way.
