Cooking Instructions
Discover the exceptional taste of our king scallops, renowned for their firm, white scallop meat that delivers a mild and sweet flavour. Best enjoyed with quick yet gentle cooking methods such as sautéing, grilling, or baking.
Highly regarded by chefs worldwide, king scallops are rich in protein, vitamin B12, and essential minerals while being low in calories and fat. Sourced from the pristine waters off the northwest coast of Scotland, they are expertly prepared by our skilled fishmongers, complete with the vibrant orange coral (roe).
Also known as coquille saint-jacques and the pilgrim scallop, this variety was historically abundant along the coast of Galicia in Spain, symbolising pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, the Shrine of St. James.
