scallops are a separate species (shellfish). but You can simulate scallops from stingray, or shark, or even skates (relatives of stingrays). All of these fish are naturally boneless and provide A LOT of clean, white fillets. Stingray, shark or skate fillets must be well drained of blood (usually at the time of capture), skinned, and trimmed of any cartilage.
The truth of the matter is that less than 1% of all the scallops harvested are really those hand harvested by a diver. And we believe the very best come from our own local inshore Maine coast.
