These are true U-10 scallops from the cold waters off Alaska, ten or fewer to the pound, the size restaurants prize and home kitchens rarely get to buy. Each one is thick and ivory-pale with a firm, satiny texture and a clean, natural sweetness that needs almost nothing to shine.Because they are dry-packed, never soaked in saline or treated with phosphates, they hold their own moisture instead of leaching it, which means a deep golden crust in the pan rather than a gray steam. Sear them hard for a restaurant plate at home, or slice them raw for a crudo that tastes purely of the sea.Best for: searing, crudo, and sashimi. Wild-caught in Alaska, dry-packed.
