RAW PESTO SCALLOPS
Creamy, sweet, briny and meaty at the same time, scallops are the most user-friendly of mollusks - and need few frills. This recipe comes together in less than 15 minutes and tops raw scallops with an easy pesto. Because this recipe calls for raw scallops, buy the best "dry" or "dry-packed" scallops you can afford.
