I like sauteing in butter, pouring in a little heavy cream, and
sprinkling on a little paprika. Simple, quick, and rich as all get out.

Put them on skewers, brush them with olive oil or sesame oil, and broil or
grill.

Make seviche by marinating the scallops in citrus juice with any flavorings
you like.

Mix them with vegetables in a white sauce and make a pot pie, or pour over
pasta.

Make a curry with vegetables and put the scallops in just for the last
minute or two of cooking.

Oh, I just thought of another -- stir fry with Chinese broccoli,
seasoned with ginger, a teeny bit of garlic, scallions, and a little bit
of dry sherry.

Whatever you do..... if at all possible, avoid buying the water added
scallops. Your tastebuds will thank you.
A twist on a familiar recipe.....

Get some large stuffing mushrooms, 2 per serving. Pop out the stems,
making a cup. Put a scallop or two into the cup. Wrap with a piece of
bacon, so the ends are tucked underneath the shroom and the scallops
are covered. Bake in a 350 oven untill the bacon is cooked, about 20-25
minutes. To serve, you might want to cut each stuffed shroom into
quarters or halves, then place in a small bowl.

Here's a quote on this subject from Pacific Seafoods website.

"Most scallops sold in the U.S. are treated with tripolyphosphate, a
widely used food additive that helps retain moisture. However,
"tripoly" can be abused to promote excessive water pickup, one reason
the FDA requires that any scallop with more than 82% water content be
labeled as a "water-added" product. Scallops with more than 86% water
cannot be marketed. Unsoaked "dry" scallops are in increasing demand.
They normally sell for about a 20% premium over the same size processed
scallop. To test if a scallop is dry, toss one in a smoking hot
skillet. If it sticks, it's dry. Dry scallops will also have a nutty,
brown color, while soaked scallops will be white."

Trader Joes, I believe, sells frozen scallops without 'tripoly' but I'm
not absolutely positive about that.

I like to sear them on a hot CI pan to make a brown crust oneach side,
leaving the middle almost raw.

Broiled - one of the best foods on the planet when broiled with a bit of clarified butter as the oil.
having said that, i am now going to go to the market and get some so i can broil them on skewers tomorrow. Seriously.

I don't know what to have with them, but they are so good broiled I may just pass on any sides.

Skewer them with shrimps, marinated musrooms and a few pineapple chunks.

A good side would be grilles asparagus with lemon butter.

Asparagus - excellent call - and fresh is on special at the market, also in
white. I just might try white this time.

Please get rid of the HTML stuff from your posts. Just because WebTV
lets you do that doesn't mean it's a good thing.

There are tons of recipes. Just google for "scallop recipes". I like to
cook scallops by sauteing them in a fry pan with a bit of olive oil just
for a minute or two per side, splashing them with a bit of white wine,
and them serving over pasta. You can also broil scallops, but be careful
not to overcook them.

This is for sea scallops, the 10-12/lb size, no bay or calico scallops.

Microwave some maple or brown sugar cured bacon until limp but still only
partially cooked. Wrap scallops with bacon and pin with toothpicks
(alternatively, alternate squares of bacon on skewers).

In a very hot, lightly oiled cast iron skillet or griddle sear the scallops
on both sides to form a crust but still rare or even raw in the middle,
about 45 second per side. Remove to a warm oven, deglaze the pan with some
lime juice. Add caramelized sugar and a dash of fish sauce (substitute
teriyaki) Plate scallops and sauce with the lime/caramel pan sauce.

The white asparagus with the scallops -

Peeling asparagus was kind of different - I usually just snap asparagus.

The flavor was delicate to almost not there - kind of a really really mild
asparagus flavor. A little flavor in the tips and in some stalks, and then
others lacked flavor at all.

Ok to try once, but its not going to be a staple here.

Thanks for the report! :-)
I've seen it at central market right next to the green asparagus and
have been curious about it, but it was always more expensive.

Maybe your experience is why it's never really caught on?

You clearly haven't read Ursula Hegi's "Stones From the River" '-). I'll
never think of white asparagus the same way again. Terrific book by the
way.
