Wild-caught Atlantic sea scallops graded U-10, meaning fewer than 10 scallops per pound — the largest size commercially available. USDC Grade A certification guarantees top-quality inspection by the United States Department of Commerce. Sold in a 2 lb bag, these scallops contain no added water or saline, making them true dry scallops that sear beautifully and develop a rich golden crust without releasing excess moisture.

These premium scallops are sourced from the North Atlantic fishery along the U.S. and Canadian coastlines. The Atlantic sea scallop (Placopecten magellanicus) is harvested from a highly regulated, sustainably managed wild fishery recognized as one of the world's most valuable. U-10 scallops require over 10 years to reach full size, resulting in a large, tender adductor muscle with a naturally sweet, mild ocean flavor and firm white texture.

To prepare, pat the scallops dry and sear on a preheated cast iron skillet for 2-3 minutes per side with butter and garlic until a golden crust forms. Scallops are a lean, high-protein seafood with very low saturated fat and are a natural source of magnesium, potassium, and vitamin B12.
