These wild-caught Dayboat Sea Scallops from New England are known for their delicate texture and fresh flavor. Dayboat Scallops are larger than Bay Scallops and are approximately 1.5-2" in diameter.

Dayboat Sea Scallops are caught on a boat that must return to land within 24 hours of its departure, making these some of the freshest scallops available.


 

Sustainability
  • These beauties come from our friends at New England Fishmongers, a small fleet committed to sustainable fishing practices and community-building.
  • Sea Scallops are very fertile—a female sea scallop can produce hundreds of millions of eggs per year! This makes them respond more rapidly to conservation actions than species that reproduce slowly and in small numbers.
  • Atlantic sea scallop fisheries are managed by allocating catch amounts to different fishing groups, limiting days-at-sea and the number of trips to special access areas. Limits on crew sizes, closures on protected habitat areas, and vessel monitoring programs are also in place. (NOAA, Atlantic Sea Scallops)

 

Nutritional Benefits
  • High nutritional value in exchange for low caloric content.
  • Low-fat, lean protein and provide an assortment of essential micronutrients.
  • High in vitamin B12, vitamin A, and vitamin B6 along with trace amounts of minerals like folic acid, niacin, thiamine, and riboflavin.

 

Fun Facts
  • The soft, fleshy part of the scallop we eat is its adductor muscle. Using it to snap its top and bottom shells open and shut, a sea scallop can propel itself through the water to escape predators.
  • The difference between types of Scallops typically refers to the length of the fishing trip.

 

Recipes

Simple Seared Scallops:

  1. Rinse well and pat dry with a paper towel.
  2. Lightly salt, and add finely ground fresh pepper to taste.
  3. Warm up a skillet over medium heat and add some butter or oil.
  4. At the first sign of smoke, gently place scallops in the pan one by one.
  5. Do not move scallops for two minutes, creating a nice sear. When the desired sear is achieved, flip.
  6. Sear the second side for a maximum of 2 minutes.

Your scallops are ready! They can act as a main dish with sides, on top of your favorite pasta, risotto, or wrapped in bacon as an appetizer.
