Titli's Tips
Fresh scallops are always best for this dish, but you can use frozen scallops too. Do check the packet. Scallops that are without any additives are called “dry packed”, while scallops that are treated with sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) are called “wet packed”. STPP causes the scallops to absorb moisture prior to the freezing process and therefore they will lose a lot of moisture when you cook them.
