Flame Grilled Aburi Scallop Appetizer

Posted 2014-05-14 by GiGi GMV ⇒ follow

I absolutely adore aburi scallops and it was love at first bite. Usually you will find these delicacies in sushi restaurants.

Aburi style cooking is essentially searing on a high flame. You will achieve a beautiful smokey char on the surface and a super moist taste.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 3 minutes
Makes: 4 servings

Ingredients
20 fresh sashimi grade scallops
100g fresh baby snow pea sprouts
4 baby pink radish
20g pickled ginger
5g pink sea salt crystal
10ml soy sauce
5g wasabi paste

Method

Pat dry the scallops and place them on an oven proof aluminium sheet.

Turn the gas flame torch on high.

Lightly sear the top of each scallop for 10 seconds.

You should see the lovely char marks and the scallop texture will remain supple and bouncy when you touch it.

Use a stone plate and arrange 5 aburi scallops on top of the pink radish slices.

Season with pink salt crystals.

Scatter some baby snow pea sprouts around.

Garnish with pickled ginger.

Serve with wasabi soy sauce on the side.

They almost melted in my mouth. A perfect celebratory and elegant appetizer. Everyone will be wowed by it and they are so simple to make.
