Foodies consider eating scallops alive a delicacy since they have a unique and fresh flavor.
The texture of live scallops is also thought to be softer than that of previously frozen or cooked scallops.
What part of the scallops can we eat?
The scallop's muscle, which is the component that is most frequently eaten, can be thinly sliced and deep-fried as scallop chips or cut and served raw in dishes like sashimi.
Additionally, the muscle can be roasted, grilled, or pan-fried.
Cooking can also be done with the skirt, which is the part of the shell that is edible.
It is frequently included in stews and soups and can be grilled, fried, or baked.
The scallop's roe (or eggs), which can be served raw or cooked, is also regarded as a delicacy in some cultures.
Overall, the scallop's pieces can be utilized in a wide range of foods and culinary styles, including tempura and raw sashimi.
