SCALLOP SAUTE WITH CREAMY MISO SAUCE



Scallop Saute With Creamy Miso Sauce image

The original recipe comes from Harumi Kurihara. Using the scallops normally available in the US, I had some problems with amount of sauce in her original recipe and I altered to work better for me. The idea of combining hot food over chilled lettuce may sound unusual, but not so strange when you consider we have salads with grilled salmon or chicken on top in the US. You only need enough shredded lettuce to line the plate. If you do not have mirin, use sake or sherry.

MISO-BROILED SCALLOPS



Miso-Broiled Scallops image

Miso, the traditional Japanese soybean paste, is one of those convenience foods whose complexity belies its ingredients: it contains only soybeans, salt and grain (usually rice or barley, though others are used too), inoculated with the Aspergillus orzyae bacteria and aged for up to three years. The production process is not unlike that for good hard cheese, and miso is frequently compared with Parmesan. It is equally complex, and both are known for the strong presence of umami, the Japanese word for the fifth taste (after salt, sour, sweet and bitter), roughly translated as ''deliciousness.'' Here, miso is combined with little more than scallops, then allowed to sit for a while before grilling or broiling. The combination and preparation are traditional, the equivalent of slathering something with barbecue sauce before cooking. Of course, miso is a far cry from barbecue sauce: its elegance is unmistakable.

JAPANESE MISO BUTTER SCALLOPS



Japanese Miso Butter Scallops image

Cooking scallops the Japanese way with sweet miso! I wanted to share this recipe, because people who buy miso end up using just a little bit and storing the rest in the fridge, not knowing what else you can do with it. I run a cooking school in Kyoto (HARU Cooking Class) and I meet many people from overseas who have told me this.

Time 15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon miso paste
1 tablespoon sake
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 tablespoon oil
½ pound sea scallops
1 teaspoon water, if needed
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Combine miso paste, sake, soy sauce, and sugar in a small bowl.
  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add scallops and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn scallops and cook until no longer translucent and cooked through, about 1 more minute.

MISO-GLAZED GRILLED SCALLOPS



Miso-Glazed Grilled Scallops image

This simple and sophisticated treatment is perfect for grilled scallops, but also works well on chicken or pork. One note on preparation: Err on the side of undercooking. Take the scallops off the grill before they're opaque all the way through. If you undercook a scallop, it will still be delicious, but if you overcook it, it will get rubbery.

Time 15m

Yield Varies

Number Of Ingredients 6

Vegetable oil, for brushing
2 tablespoons miso
2 tablespoons mirin or sake
Freshly ground pepper
Large scallops
Sesame seeds and sliced scallions, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat a charcoal or gas grill until very hot. Brush the grill with a little oil and position the grill grate 3 to 4 inches from the heat.
  • Whisk together the miso and mirin or sake; season to taste with pepper.
  • Thread the scallops through their equators onto metal or soaked wooden skewers and brush them all over with vegetable oil. Grill scallops until they're browned and release easily from the grill, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • When they're almost done, brush on both sides with the miso mixture, and continue to cook, turning once or twice, until the glaze caramelizes a bit and the scallops are done. Take the scallops off the grill before the interior becomes totally opaque.
  • Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions and serve immediately.

SAUTEED SEA SCALLOPS WITH MUSTARD SAUCE



Sauteed Sea Scallops with Mustard Sauce image

Categories     Mustard     Shellfish     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Scallop     Spring     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 pound sea scallops
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large shallot, minced
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
2 scallion greens, cut diagonally into 1/4-inch slices (about 2 tablespoons)
Accompaniment: caraway rice cakes

Steps:

  • Remove tough muscle from side of each scallop if necessary. Pat scallops dry and season with salt and pepper. In a 10-to 12-inch non-stick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté scallops 1 to 2 minutes on each side (depending on size), or until golden and just cooked through. 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.
  • Spoon sauce onto a small platter or 2 plates. Top sauce with scallops and sprinkle with scallion. Serve scallops with caraway rice cakes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the best results, use fresh, high-quality scallops. Look for scallops that are plump and have a slightly briny smell.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can sear the scallops in a hot skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  • Make sure the miso paste is well dissolved in the cream sauce before adding the scallops. This will help prevent the sauce from curdling.
  • Serve the scallops immediately after cooking. They are best enjoyed when they are hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Scallops with Miso Mustard Cream Sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The scallops are cooked to perfection and the sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your guests. Here are some additional tips:

  • For a more intense flavor, use dark miso paste.
  • If you like a spicy sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
  • Serve the scallops over rice or noodles for a complete meal.
