Roe On

Roe-on scallops keep the coral attached to the white meat—common in European and Japanese markets. The plate shows two textures and a deeper marine flavour. Sear carefully so coral does not scorch while the adductor browns. Serve as a composed main or on the half-shell after a brief warm-through.
