Introduction: When making scallops, the most taboo to directly add water to boil, teach you the correct way, scallop meat is tender, do not retract!
Spring is a season suitable for ordinary people to eat seafood, such as rainbows and scallops and other inexpensive seafood have been listed, 10 yuan can make a big pot, enough for a family to eat! I have eaten rainbows and scallops for a week in a row, which is really enough seafood addiction!

Our Haihong here is about 2 pieces a pound, scallops 5 yuan a pound, every day after work can meet a car of Haihong or scallops sold at the entrance of the unit or on the side of the road, I will not help but tempt to buy 10 yuan every time. People who live by the sea know that eating seafood is a fresh: when buying seafood, you should pick fresh and fat, you must use the simplest method when doing it, you can't add too many seasonings, so what is fresh when buying scallops, what to pay attention to when doing, I will share the tips for picking scallops and making scallops:
【Pick scallops】:
Look at the shell, the fresh scallop shell is shiny, and very full, that is, it looks very drummed, usually the higher the scallop shell is drummed, the fatter the scallop meat inside; on the contrary, the scallop shell looks flat and flat, so that the scallop meat is generally very small, and it is not too addictive to eat.
When filling the scallops in the bag, if you feel which fan is light, you have to pick out such scallops, such scallops are often empty or dead scallops.
Three look at whether to open their mouths, many friends think that the scallops with open mouths are alive, but not necessarily! Not fresh dead scallops are also open mouth, see the open mouth scallops, we have to use our hands to gently touch it, if you can immediately close your mouth, indicating that it is fresh scallops, on the contrary is not fresh dead scallops, dead scallops are cheap do not buy, not only the taste is not good, but also may breed a variety of bacteria, eating is not good for the body!
【Steamed scallops】:
What makes scallops the most delicious? Some people say to eat it steaming, some people say to cook it, and some people say that they pour it directly into the pot without adding water to "boil" it and eat it. I think that whether it is a rainbow, scallops, flower clams, crabs, climbing shrimp or scallops, it is best not to add water directly to boil and eat, because boiled seafood, one is that the upper and lower layers are easily heated unevenly (the bottom is boiled in water, the top is not steamed in the water), often resulting in the cooking of the bottom is old, and the top is not cooked; in addition, when cooking seafood, the umami taste and nutrition will be lost to the water, and the seafood taste is not good enough! The best way to eat it is steamed, of course, steamed seafood also has a skill:
1. First brush the shell of the scallop with a brush, so that the soup is clean and hygienic, and can be drunk or used to make seafood knotty soup.
2. Add an appropriate amount of water to the pot, add a few slices of ginger and a little cooking wine to the water, because scallops belong to cold food, adding ginger slices can neutralize its coldness, and adding cooking wine can remove the fishy smell. Then put on the lid curtain, spread the washed scallops evenly on top, cover the pot lid, steam on high heat until the scallops open their mouths and continue to steam for 1 minute, you can come out of the pot and enjoy it beautifully with ginger juice.
Steamed scallops do not overheat, overheated scallop meat will be hard and not delicious, normal steaming until the scallop shell is opened can turn off the heat out of the pot, but I in order to be more assured, generally will cook for 1 minute more, remember, do not take long Oh.
The steamed scallops are poured into the basin, and if you are not in a hurry to eat, you can soak them in the soup of steamed scallops to prevent it from drying out and not eating. The endless scallops are peeled out and cut into small cubes, and then a little shrimp, seaweed and leeks are added to make a seafood lump soup, which is called a delicious one! The soup of the pimple soup must be used to steam scallops when the soup at the bottom of the pot Oh, filter it and then use it, it is very fresh!
