SEAWEED SALAD WITH SCALLOPS
Sweet and briny scallops need little more than a splash of oil and a pinch of seasoning to be delicious. Because they're often enjoyed raw, it's important to purchase fresh, high-quality bivalves. Many store-bought scallops are soaked in a phosphate solution that plumps them up with water (therefore bumping up the price), so it's important to look for scallops that are labeled "dry" or "dry-packed." A waterlogged scallop doesn't sear well, and a phosphate-marinated scallop may taste like soap, especially when consumed raw as they are here. In this 10-minute recipe, the scallop takes center-stage while seaweed and cucumber provide texture, and soy sauce and sesame oil add depth.

Steps:
- Rinse the seaweed then soak it in a large pot of water until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and gently squeeze to remove excess water. Transfer to a medium bowl.
- Quarter the scallops and transfer to the bowl. Add the cucumber, soy sauce and sesame oil and gently toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper, if needed. Divide among plates or shallow bowls and garnish with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
SOY-BUTTER BASTED SCALLOPS WITH WILTED GREENS AND SESAME
This simple dish was inspired by a recipe for steamed scallop and butter rice found in "Donabe: Classic and Modern Japanese Clay Pot Cooking" (Ten Speed, 2015) by Naoko Takei Moore and Kyle Connaughton. Here, sweet sea scallops are seared in a hot pan and basted with melted butter and soy sauce to finish cooking. Tender greens are sautéed in garlic oil, then the scallops are placed on top and everything is drizzled with the remaining soy-butter and a bit of sesame oil. Finish the dish with a good squeeze of lime, thinly sliced scallions and a smattering of sesame seeds. It's wonderful served over steamed white rice, so be sure to get that on the stove before you begin cooking the scallops, as the rest of the meal comes together in no time at all.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 200 degrees. Season the scallops well with salt and pepper. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil and, when it shimmers, add the scallops. Cook undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes, until they begin to brown and form a crust on the bottom.
- Flip the scallops, add the butter and soy sauce to the pan and use a spoon to repeatedly drizzle the sauce over the tops of the scallops to finish cooking, 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Set the scallops on an oven-safe plate and pour the butter mixture on top. Place the plate in the oven to keep the scallops warm while you finish the rest of the dish.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil to the skillet and heat over medium. Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook until the garlic is pale golden, about 2 minutes, adding a teaspoon or so more of grapeseed oil if needed. Return the heat to medium-high and add the spinach, in batches, if needed, and season with salt. Toss until the spinach wilts, adding a few teaspoons of water to help it along, if needed, and scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Turn off the heat.
- Add the scallops back to the pan and pour any residual butter-sauce over top. Drizzle the dish with sesame oil and a good squeeze of lime. Top with scallions and sesame seeds, if using, and serve with rice.

BAY SCALLOPS WITH SCALLIONS AND SESAME SEEDS
This simple recipe, adapted from David Paultstich, the chef at The Mark Hotel in New York, calls for just five ingredients - the best bay scallops you can find, butter, scallions, lemon juice and toasted sesame seeds. The gentle bite of the scallions and the tang of the lemon complement the natural sweetness of shellfish while a shower of sesame seeds adds a nutty, delicate crunch.

Steps:
- Place the scallops in a bowl, and add the milk. Stir to coat, and let stand briefly.
- Place the flour in a flat dish. Add salt and pepper; blend well. Drain the scallops, and dredge them in the flour mixture. Place the flour-coated scallops in a large sieve. Shake to remove any excess flour. Scatter the scallops onto a sheet of foil or wax paper so that they do not touch, or they may stick together.
- Heat the olive oil in a saucepan. Add the garlic, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Add the vinegar, and bring to a sizzle. Simmer for 2 minutes.
- Heat the vegetable oil over high heat in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the scallops in one layer. Add the scallops, and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Spoon equal portions of the scallops onto warm plates, and pour some of the tomato sauce over each portion. Sprinkle each with an equal amount of chopped basil or parsley, and serve with noodles.

SIMPLEST BAY SCALLOPS
This recipe, adapted from "Fish: The Complete Guide to Buying and Cooking" by Mark Bittman, came to The Times in 1997, part of a greater piece on bay scallops. In season from November to March, he wrote, they're "best prepared as simply as possible," and made as they are here: with just a quick sear, a sprinkling of salt and some lemon wedges to let their flavor shine through.

SAUTéED SCALLOPS
Sea scallops and bay scallops differ in size and sweetness. They also cook a little differently. I love a good hard sear on a sea scallop, a little crust, and a splash of wine in the butter at the end to provide a silky acidity against the sweet of the meat. For the tiny, sweet bay scallop, though, I prefer a gentle butter bath. Whichever you cook, be very careful not to overcook. Indeed, there is almost no such thing as an undercooked scallop.
