Ingredients

1/2 pound sea scallops
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup freshly grated Gruyère
1/2 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 large egg white
8 slices of homemade-type white bread, toasted lightly, the crusts discarded, and each slice cut into 4 squares

Steps:

In a saucepan combine the scallops with enough salted water to cover them completely, bring the water to a simmer, and poach the scallops for 5 minutes. Drain the scallops well and cut them into 1/2-inch pieces. In a bowl whisk together the mayonnaise, the Gruyére, the mustard, the lemon juice, the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste, add the scallops, and toss the mixture well. In a small bowl beat the egg white until it just holds stiff peaks and fold it into the scallop mixture gently but thoroughly. Top each bread square with a heaping teaspoon of the scallop mixture, arrange the puffs about 1/2 inch apart on baking sheets, and broil them under a preheated broiler about 6 inches from the heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the toppings are bubbling and lightly golden (do not allow the edges of the toasts to burn).

I would not recommend this recipe. It's a waste of time and ingredients.

These scallop puffs were a disaster. They fell apart when I tried to eat them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my scallop puffs didn't turn out right. They were too dry and the filling was too runny.

These scallop puffs were a bit bland. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of scallops, but I really enjoyed these scallop puffs. They were light and airy, with a nice flavor.

These scallop puffs were a bit more work than I expected, but they were worth it. They were absolutely delicious.

I made these for my family and they loved them! They're a great way to use up leftover scallops.

I followed the recipe exactly and the scallop puffs turned out great! They were light and fluffy, with a nice crispy crust. The filling was flavorful and creamy.
