SCALLOPS IN SAFFRON SAUCE
These are the most delicious scallops I have ever had. Perfect for a special occasion as an appetizer. I found the fish stock hard to find so I substituted vegetable stock and it was just as good. Also, I would imagine you could substitute the scallops for prawns.

Steps:
- In a large pot, bring the white wine to a boil over high heat. Add the lobster, cover, reduce heat and steam for 10 minutes. Remove the lobster and set aside. Reserve the broth.
- When the lobster is cool, remove the meat from the claws and tail and set aside. Use a sharp knife to split the body and to break the shell into 2- to 3-inch chunks. Place the shells in the reserved lobster broth over low heat, and simmer for 1 hour. Strain and set aside.
- Melt 1 teaspoon of the butter in a clean saucepan. Add the shallots, and saute until softened, about 30 seconds. Add the lobster broth and the sparkling wine, and bring to a slow simmer. Add the scallops, and simmer just until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, place in a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Place 2 cups of the poaching liquid in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until reduced to 1 cup, about 15 minutes. Add the saffron, and simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 10 minutes. Cut the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons butter into small pieces. Remove the sauce from the heat, and gradually whisk in the butter. Carefully stir in the caviar to avoid breaking the eggs.
- Cut the lobster meat into bite-size chunks. Steam the spinach just until wilted, and divide among 4 plates. Divide the scallops among the plates, sprinkle with lobster chunks and spoon the sauce over the scallops and lobster. Serve immediately.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH CHAMPAGNE SAFFRON SAUCE
This is a delicious dish in a light cream sauce, and gets great flavor from the saffron. This would be great for a special occasion, or as an appetizer for a dinner party, and it's great with just plain white rice.

Steps:
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over high heat, add the saffron threads and toast them just until they start to give off their aroma(not very long, be sure not to burn them).
- Take the saffron threads out of the skillet and set aside.
- Melt half of the butter in the pan and start frying the scallops in batches, adding more butter as needed. Fry them so they are cooked through and lightly browned on each side.
- Transfer the scallops to a warm dish and keep covered.
- Add the saffron to the cooking juices, along with the champagne, cream, and any reserved scallop juices and stir.
- Bring to a boil, and then lower the heat slightly and simmer for about 10 minutes, until reduced to a consistency that coats the back of a spoon.
- Add freshly squeezed lemon juice from the half a lemon, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Return the scallops to the pan and stir until just heated through.
- Transfer to plates and garnish with parsley. Enjoy :).
