SAUTEED DIVER SEA SCALLOPS WITH SAKE NAGE

Heat a saucepan over medium heat, add olive oil, fennel, ginger, lemongrass, shallots, leeks, sweat covered until soft, do not allow them to brown, add sake, wine and reduce by half, add fumet, scallop muscles and sachet. Simmer 30 minutes. Let stand off heat 10 minutes to settle impurities, ladle off the top through cheesecloth. Reserve this fumet. Heat a saute pan over mediumhigh heat, add veg. oil. Season scallops with salt and pepper, when oil is smoking, add scallops. Turn heat down to medium, turn scallops after 2 minutes, cook another 2 minutes on the second side. Remove them from the pan. In a small sauce pan add the fumet and lime juice together, bring to a boil, using an immersion blender add the butter until a thickened, foamy sauce is made. Season with salt and pepper, and serve around the scallops.

SAUTéED SCALLOPS WITH GARLIC

Steps:

• Put the oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet and turn the heat to medium-high; begin to dredge the scallops lightly in the flour. When the butter foam subsides, add the scallops swiftly but not all at once. Turn them individually, as they brown, allowing about 2 minutes per side. Season with salt and pepper as they cook.
• Once you have turned all the scallops, add the garlic and lower the heat a bit. Stir or, even better, shake the pan gently so the garlic cooks a bit and is distributed among the scallops. Garnish and serve.
• A venerable tradition: In step 1, use only 1 tablespoon butter or oil; in it, sauté about 1/4 cup bacon or pancetta over medium heat until crisp, 5 to 10 minutes; halfway through the cooking time, add 1/4 cup minced shallots. Quarter the scallops; do not dredge them in flour. Stir them into the bacon/shallot mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, for a couple of minutes, until stark white. Season to taste (omit the garlic), garnish, and serve.
• You can finish either the main recipe or the variation this way: Transfer the cooked scallops to a warm platter and turn the heat to high. Add 1 cup dry white wine (a really good one will not be wasted here) and cook, stirring and scraping the pan with a wooden spoon, until the wine is reduced by more than half and is syrupy and thick. Pour this over the cooked scallops, garnish, and serve.

SAUTEED SEA SCALLOPS WITH MUSTARD SAUCE

Transfer scallops with tongs to a plate and keep warm, covered loosely.
• In oil remaining in skillet cook shallot over moderate heat, stirring, until softened. Add wine and boil, scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Stir in water and mustard and simmer until reduced to about 1/4 cup. Add butter and swirl skillet, returning skillet to heat as necessary, until butter is just incorporated into sauce. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
