So this will be my first blog about food that I've made and not eaten at a restaurant! I'm excited.. I like to cook a lot and one of my favourite places to go to is Diana's Seafood Delight. You can really find the freshest seafood there ranging from oysters, to fish, to lobsters, to sea urchins!
Portebello & scallop & brocolli cream sauce spaghetti
1. boil brocolli trees for a few minutes until slightly cooked
2. use a little bit of oil to stir fry the scallops until slightly cooked
3. add portebello mushrooms & brocolli & table cream
4. add flour and stir in until sauce thickens
5. season with salt & pepper as you desire :)
I'm sure there are more advanced recipes out there but when you want to make pasta quick, this is just how I do it.
Steamed Japanese Sea Scallops with Vermicelli
1. thinly slice the green onions & ginger.. is this called julienne?
2. remove half of the shell from the scallop.. since they're still alive you can't rip it apart with your hands (trust me I tried!) you have to stick a knife in there and remove the meat from 1 side to kill it before you can open it : (
3. immerse the vermicelli into boiling water for 5 minutes and remove
4. in a very LARGE pot bring water to a boil
5. put the scallops on half shell on a plate that fits inside the large pot and top with vermicelli & diced garlic
6. i'm not sure what this thing is called but it looks like a metal stand that you can put inside the pot.. I'll try to find a picture to show you ! but it makes sure that the plate does not get flooded with water... but yea.. put THAT thing in the pot and put the plate of scallops on top
7. put the lid over top the pot and steam for about 5-10minutes
8. in a seperate skillet use oil to fry the green onions & ginger, add in some soy sauce once it smells fragrant (this shouldn't take more than 1 minute)
9. remove the plate of scallops and pour soy sauce over top & serve!
boiled shrimp topped with the same sauce made in step 8 above
served with a side of chili soy sauce
fanny bay & kumamoto oysters :)
asparagus grilled with black pepper, butter, and sliced proscuitto (not bought from Diana's!)
Surf clam tossed in sesame oil and soy sauce with Japanese seaweed salad.
The seaweed salad can be bought premade and the surf clams are bought frozen. Defrost, wash, and cut in half!
