Individually frozen Canadian scallops, sold raw and ready to cook from frozen or after thawing. They're just the scallop meat, with no shell, sauce, or coating, so you're looking at a plain ingredient rather than a finished dish. In the frozen range, these sit alongside other seafood basics like prawns and fish fillets, meant for pan-frying, grilling, or adding to pasta and risotto. Canadian scallops tend to be plump and sweet, with a firm texture that caramelises beautifully in a hot pan. Sear them with butter and a squeeze of lemon, or slice them thin for a crudo-style starter. They cook quickly, so watch the heat closely and pull them when the centre is just translucent.
