Indulge in Opulence: Hokkaido Japanese Scallops, Sashimi Grade!

Delight your senses with the pinnacle of seafood excellence - Hokkaido Japanese scallops, sashimi grade. Coveted by seafood connoisseurs and revered by food enthusiasts worldwide, these scallops represent the epitome of quality, flavour and culinary delight. Sourced from the pristine waters of Hokkaido, Japan, they are renowned for their unrivalled taste, size and texture, making them a must-have for any discerning palate.

Unparalleled Excellence: Japanese Scallops at Their Finest

  • Sashimi Grade: Hand-selected for their impeccable freshness and superior quality, these scallops are deemed sashimi grade shellfish, meeting the highest standards for raw consumption. Their pristine condition and delicate flavour make them a favourite among sushi aficionados and culinary enthusiasts alike.
  • Hanging Method: Utilising traditional farming methods, Japanese scallops are cultivated using the 'hanging method', where they are suspended in sea water on ropes or in baskets for up to three years. This meticulous process allows the scallops to develop their unique flavour and texture, resulting in a truly exceptional dining experience.
  • Untreated Perfection: Unlike other scallops that may undergo soaking or treatment, Hokkaido Japanese Scallops are left untouched, as their superior quality requires minimal enhancement. Their natural sweetness and succulence shine through, creating an unparalleled culinary experience with every bite.

Hokkaido Japanese Scallops Cooking Suggestions

  1. Pan-Fried in Seaweed Butter: Enhance the natural flavour of the scallops by pan-frying them in a decadent seaweed-infused butter. The umami-rich butter complements the sweetness of the scallops, creating a harmonious flavour profile that is sure to impress.
  2. Served as Sashimi: For a truly authentic experience, enjoy the melt-in-the-mouth texture of Japanese scallops by serving them as sashimi. Thinly slice the scallops and serve them with a drizzle of soy sauce, a touch of wasabi and freshly grated ginger for a refreshing and delightful appetiser or main course.

Hokkaido Japanese Scallops Serving Suggestions

  • Chilled Sake: Enhance the delicate flavours of the scallops with a glass of chilled sake, allowing the subtle nuances of the seafood to shine through while refreshing the palate with each sip.
  • Citrus Salad: Pair the scallops with a vibrant citrus salad featuring segments of grapefruit, orange and pomelo, dressed with a light vinaigrette. The citrusy acidity of the salad complements the sweetness of the scallops, creating a harmonious and refreshing combination.
  • Risotto: Serve the scallops atop a creamy risotto infused with flavours of saffron and Parmesan cheese. The creamy texture of the risotto provides a luxurious backdrop for the tender scallops, creating a decadent and satisfying dish that is sure to impress.
