First step: buy home scallops, first rinse with running water, and then use a clean brush to brush the shell of the scallops. Some people say, eat scallops only eat meat, and do not eat the shell, there is no need to brush the shell. In fact, this understanding is wrong. Because the shell of scallops, not only has a lot of dirty things, but also may have parasites. Therefore, when you eat scallops, it is best to brush and clean.
Step 2: Put the brushed shells into a pot, prepare a piece of ginger, cut into ginger slices and spare.
The third step: take a pan or frying pan, in the bottom of the pan spread a layer of ginger, the scallops one by one into the pot, scallops all under the pot, and then a layer of ginger, plus ginger is designed to give the scallops to drive away the cold and fishy. Steaming scallops, do not add water, directly cover the pot lid, open high heat steaming.
Step 4: After 3 minutes of steaming over high heat, open the lid of the pot and open the scallops all the way, the scallops will be cooked and ready to go. After removing all the scallops, we can see that a lot of water has been steamed out of the pot.
The water steamed out of the pot is actually the moisture hidden inside the scallops. Therefore, when we steam scallops, we do not need to add a drop of water at all, and do not have to worry about steaming dry pot, with this method of steaming scallops, not only tender and delicious, nutrition is not lost.
