Baked Scallop with Cheese and Herbs on it’s shell or scallop mornay will be a great appetizer on your party. Well, i think the this baked scallop won’t be last longer than other savoury apptizer. Simple baked scallop with cheese and fragrance herbs with a little touch of tomato ketchup will be an impressive looking dish. Check out the other scallop appetizer that i’ve been posted before, Steamed Sea Scallop with Black Bean Sauce and Served with Rice Glass Vermicelli/ Bihoon, Pan Fried Scallop with Black Garlic, and Grilled Scallop with Roasted Bell Pepper Sauce.
For making scallops mornay, choose the meaty scallops. Actually i purchase 12 live scallop for about 2 USD for each of it with a good expectation of meaty scallop muscle underneath the shell. Unfortunately i’ve got 1 ruined or dead scallop and rather small meat and shell ratio for the rest of it. . That’s why i use 2 scallops on each shell. You can see there’s 2 bulging scallop under the melted cheese on the photograph. Btw, if you like, you should keep the yellowish scallop roe becauce it’s edible too.
Homemade scallop mornay can use any cheese within the recipe, but i suggest you to use young cheese because it can melt easily during the baking process. Instead of using an oven, you can cooked the dish using a torch flame too. Just make sure you torched the scallop first, then add the mozarella cheese and torched it again to melt the cheese. Always boil the scallop shell prior to flame torching first to desinfected it whenever you’re not baked it

I’ve always been scared to attempt seafood other than shrimp or salmon, but I absolutely LOVE the taste of it. You make it seem as easy as can be. Maybe I’ll stop at the local seafood place and pick up some scallops to try, now!
