    How do you cook seafood scallops ?

    --fry them ? Bake them in oven ? cook in George Foremen grill ? Broil them in the oven ? Grill them outside ( I would do this if I had an outside grill )

    They are regular food over here.You can crumb them & deep fry or you can steam them.If they have the orange roe attached they are genuine scallops & not fish cut with a cookie cutter.

    They all look good and this is coming from a non-fish eater. None of them were round though.

    Scallops, balots, I don't eat them but I do know this little piece of advice: if your scallops are round then they were stamped out of inferior fish and sold as scallops. Scallops are not round.....

    Fish pish, don't believe everything you hear or read.
    Scottish scallop.

    Chefs make them perfectly round, silly waste.

    No, they don't. I mean, why not serve them natural like? Providers take a pipe to inferior fish, but not unlike scallops, and punch the morsels out. I'll find a seafood restaurant, I know who! QUALITY SEAFOOD! A supplier. I'll call them and ask.

    I looked up scallops meat shape and tried to download the best photo of the creatures. They are more oblong in shape and come in a variety of sizes. None of them, and there was a lot of photos, were perfectly round.

    really ? I thought they grew like that.........round. You mean they're not a separate animal from a fish and born round ?

    according to Wikipedia, scallops are a type of mollusk or thorny oyster. It even said they can scamper across the ocean floor.

    And when we eat them mcm, they are deelish, whatever shape they are.

    I watched all the good looking recipes and not one showed a perfectly round scallop....
